Re: self-sowers

The orienpets that she wanted to share an order for were Luminaries ($30),
Silk Road ($12.50), Caravan ($30). and Scheherazade ($6.00).  I did tell her
I could sell Scheherazade because people are always asking for our Haley's
Comet which is virtually identical but no longer available and if she could
get a quote for $2-3.00 per bulb, a minimum 16cm bulb, and guaranteed
arrival by Oct 2.

It's not that I don't think these bulbs are worth more than $5, it's just
that I know my market. Very few people here will pay that.  This woman
doesn't really understand that as she will easily pay $350 for a new
daylily.
