Scored a giant Esqueleto from Costa Farms on sale recently. $50 including shipping and even came in a nice pot.
Thai Constellations are still hot where I'm at on the west coast. No nursery has them for less than $150 and they tend to be beaten up. Asked one nursery why theirs was so mangled and they said it was cause people kept trying to steal cuttings off it.
It does sound like a rough business though. Everyone who's a collector is in it for the best deal, for sure.
- jmspring 3y agoWe have a couple Thai’s in our personal collection. The retail prices are still high, but down from a year or so back and much easier to find.
- latchkey 3y agoI mentioned below, I just picked one up today from a collector I've been buying a bunch of stuff from. $40 for two giant leaves and a big root ball. Over the moon to add this to my collection!
- huytersd 3y agoWhy is it so expensive? It’s a very muddled looking pattern. Not trying to be dismissive, just curious.
- latchkey 3y agoPretty simple, it was fairly rare and became a collectors item among plant lovers. https://costafarms.com/blogs/get-growing/monstera-thai-constellation-update https://costafarms.com/blogs/get-growing/monstera-thai-const...
