    The Clivia Forum yearly plant market will be held on 30 and 31 August 2014.

    Venue: Laerskool Rooihuiskraal
    30 August 2014 (Saturday) 8 am-5 pm
    31 August 2014 (Sunday) 8 am-3 pm (or until we get tired and decide to go home)

    We have a variety of different plant sellers this year.

    The venue will be available to all booked sellers from 1 pm to 8 pm on Friday 29 August 2014, and again from 6 am on 30 August 2014 to start setting up stalls and bringing in plants. Show plants will be displayed in the hall and will be locked up for security purposes. Plants in the stalls will be looked after by security on the premises after hours.

    Entrance fee: FREE. (We will check your wallet on entering and if it doesn't look full enough we will direct you to the nearest ATM)
    Show plants: Free (Bring as many as you like, no membership required)

    The heavy rules this year:
    1. No diseased plants will be allowed for sale or on show.
    2. No illegal plants will be allowed for sale or on show.

    3. Show plants to be benched by 8 am (30 August) at the latest. The winner will be decided on public vote so if you bring your plant late you might loose votes, but if you are late we will still accept the plant.

    4. The sellers are reminded that no plant sales to be made prior to 8 am on 30 August 2014. (We always have a few sneaking in while setting up and then the public get's upset with us.)

    5. Car boot sellers around the corner from this venue - Please don't support them. (We are sure we can supply much better plants at a good price).

    6. Last but not least. Come and enjoy a fun day with us.

    For the guys and girls regularly supporting us Thank You and we hope to see you soon.

    Kind regards
    The orginizers

    Sales only start at 08h00 on Saturday.
    Sjoe dont tell anyone but here is a new range of plants being launched at the Plantmarket.:p
    [​IMG]
    Speaking to the sellers there will be the biggest range of Clivia seen in a long time and the prices are going to be very good plus all the seeds. There will be seeds never released yet and off course all the CHINESE clivias this is the place to be to buy all these Chiffon Daughters Naudes and then there is Pikkie with fantastic Bronze plants and hopefully the 777 S and not to speak about the crinums and eceverias and Lotus flowers and orchids and much more so be there early to catch the catch of the day with camerons and tipperaries cheaper than ever before.

    Sjo that is an awesome plant looking more like a lily than a Clivia, had a look at the one website of the sellers and I was very impressed.

    Welkom
    Not related. But! I've been taking care of a neighbor's pets for a couple days. Got a text today that she's bringing me a yellow clivia from her boyfriend's farm in Vryheid. Will post a pic for ID once it arrives. It will be my first Clivia ever. So I'm ever so slightly excited.
