This was forwarded to me by Duncan McAlpine, who in turn received it from
the gentleman below. I thought that it might be appropriate here, so
here you go...
And Duncan, thanks for forwarding this on, and especially for checking
with the listowner first. If anyone ever has questions about the
suitability of posts, please feel free to ask me (lindsey@mallorn.com).

> this info to you. We presently are showcasing a special mixed-tray of

> Our names are Leroy and Marta Grey. Our company, RAVEN-Villages
> Virtual Nursery is offering perennial plugs direct to your
> organization at a 20% discount. These can be resold at garden events
> you host and/or offered to your members at a discount. This offer is
> good only if your organization orders a minimum of 5 trays (average of
> 35 plants per tray). These are the larger sized, top quality plugs,
> grown by professional perennial plug growers.
>
> This is a small "mom & pop" business and we both have a long history
> in the horticultural industry. Though we are ISP's (Internet Service
> Providers) we have always wanted to combine our two loves: plants and
> computers. Marta and I began selling our perennials via the internet
> only a week ago, so please keep that in mind when you visit our
> site. We chose an auction format to give other nursery's an
> alternative marketing avenue for their surplus plant material (keep an
> eye out for good deals in this section around Mother's Day). The
> auction format also provides amateur hybridizers/growers with a way to
> share their unique plant material with a much wider audience.
>
> Please note that our perennial plugs are offered using the "Bid-Fast"
> auction format. This means that anyone who meets our minimum bid
> automatically qualifies to receive our plugs, on a first-come,
> first-serve basis. If you have any more questions you may contact me
> personally at: lgrey@raven-villages.net or call me at 304-822-7198.

> P.S. We have taken the time to put together some very exciting
> collections of plants, each tray containing between 18 and 35 plants
> and 5 to 7 varieties. Look under "Multi-Variety Plug Trays" on our
> homepage.
