Welcome to the 2nd Acorn Auction.

You will be bidding on a medium Flat Rate Box. I'll pay the shipping. The selection of plants will vary considerably. Box will be mailed the Monday after the Auction is over.

All bidding will be done in this thread.

The high bidder will get as many plants that I can fit in the box, things like bulbs, rooted cuttings, unrooted cuttings etc. Most of the contents will be a mystery but it will most definitely contain the following:

Instant Moon Garden, with the following night blooming plants:





The Auction starts NOW May 18th, 2014 and ends Saturday, May 24th at 12 noon, Eastern Daylight Time.

I would add, that I'll certainly be checking the winners plant lists and do my best not to duplicate what they already have and possibly add something on their want list. I'll also try to be zone friendly.
