Austin was absolutely wonderful, I had seen a particularly nice rainbow obsidian sphere the other day. So I'm looking at every single piece he has. I finally narrow it down, and I'm pretty sure I picked the right one. Then I saw a fire agate, that might be a good cog in project I'm secretly working on. I was able to really look around this time. This is an amazing place, the displays are very beautifully laid out. There is actually breathing space between each individual specimen.

It's hard not to take home more than you can handle, but forget the other places that sell a most plants seasonally- like Lowe's etc. Just shop here all year long with a better selection, and real tips on how to give your new babies...
