Staplez Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 I know Jude was after this stuff and i think some body else may have been too. I saw the Albany Hollywood fish farm selling Indian fern for $4.80 if I remember correctly. Heres their website http://www.hollywoodfishfarm.co.nz/ they might ship this stuff if your lucky.

jude Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Thanks for that Staplez - I have emailed them to see if they would send me some. Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 They have said yes mystic and the price is $4.80 per plant + almost $10 for overnight courier .......... so the more plants the more economical it will be. How many would you want? Sorry - $4.80 a bunch ......... LOL Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Indian fern doesn't come in bunches. They are single plants, unless they are small examples, then they MAY put some together. Damn, wish my Indian Ferns were going ok. $4.80, is, in my opinion, a complete rip-off, as it is so easy to grow. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 I agree Alan but all I need is one plant, then I can grow as much as I like from it .......... at least, thats the plan ............. :lol: I also asked them if they could source some African fern (Bolbitis heudelotii) for me as I am having no luck getting it down here. Animates promised to order some in but never got back in touch. Keeping my fingers crossed Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Sorry Mystic, I don't know. Their email said bunch, but as Alan says, it usually comes as one plant. My guess is that they meant 'plant' Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wok Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I have heaps of Indian Fern and growing like crazy. shame my sister ain't up or I would be able to get her to take some down with her Jude / Mystic. Can you wait till May? I will be down then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucid Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 why dont you just pop them into small plastic bags and into an envolope wok and 90cents(max) later you have air mail plants B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Good thinking Ballistic. It should work. I guess you would want some too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 hmmmm if you want lots then I better get planting then shouldn't I? :-? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I have mailed plants successfully. One way is to put them in a ziplock type bag slightly blown up so the plant doesn't get squashed (no water needed) and put into a bubble bag, or into a ziplock bag as before and put into a small carton. Fax modem boxes are a good size for this :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jude Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 OK, I am happy to wait until May, thanks Wok Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jude Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 OK, bbq in the garage seeing it will be May ............. just kidding. I am happy to host it or if anyone else has a bigger place, I am just as happy to go there. Yayyyyy, get to meet Wok and get Indian Fern lol Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucid Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 we could organise to have it here, but idf the weather is crap then there may not be much room inside, and people might hesitate at the path B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I'll bring the drinks. No prizes for guessing what type :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I think any party or BBQ that Wok attends should be held outside, as he has a reputation of throwing food around. I also think that he should be stripped searched to make sure he isn't carring any hidden weapons that could be used for dispensing unwanted drinks to people. Please, for the sake of your property, see if the "Cake-tin" is available. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 The Cake Tin is where the Food Show is being held Alan. So I guess it will not be available, however there will be a lot of free sampling (if you can call it that since you need to pay $15 to get in) Anyway I only throw food cause Jude normally starts it :lol: and I have been reasonably good this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staplez Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 This fern is wonderful. My parents have got some since this thread was started and it looks so good in thier tanks. I'm sure I'll get some too so I fit in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
