LF: Mangroves
 
Like the title says, looking to replace the mangroves that I had die on me during my move. Unfortunately I lost some pretty beautiful healthy ones. All three were about a foot tall. I doubt I will find any that size again but if anyone has some they want to sell or knows a store that has some, please let me know!

Even online I guess, although mangroves don't seem to ship well in my experience.

Thanks.

What size were they when you got them?

$10 for 24 right?

Yes and the shipping is twice the value of the seeds.
Want to go halfers?
Cheers

Maybe but I would rather try to find some actual plants. I have not had great success with seeds. Plus they grow way too slow. I would prefer to start with a plant of at least a few inches. Preferably around 8". They grow about a foot a year, so are not fast growing trees by any means.

That's OK. If you change your mind let me know. Maybe a group buy?
Cheers

J&L had some a week or two ago, call and ask.

Yeah, J&L always have some, well at least everytime I've been there. I wonder if you can have them shipped to point roberts and pick them up there? You think they would let it cross the border?

Yeah Im sure they would. I have brought plants across the boarder with my parents before and they never seem to care. It is a tree after all. I don't think they are suppose to let them across though.
