Hello fellow forum members, goodkoalie recently came up with an idea came up with an idea about having a Sarracenia Forum auction:
  But whose plants would we auction off??? this is where YOU come in. to do this auction people on the forums would have to give their plants for the good of the forum.
go to the links above to get an idea of what the rules might be.
PLEASE make a comment below, do you like the idea, dont like it, ASOLUTELY LOVE IT,

I was thinking that we should have a Sarracenia fourm auction this winter/fall/spring to raise money for one of two things. Either to upgrade the fourm, make adds for it, advertise, remove adds from the fourm, or even get it it's own domain name. We could also donate the money to some organization that the fourm as a whole vote on. If you want, i could be in charge of the whole thing, write the fourm posts, and run it. Just let me know what you guys think.

True, but whose plants would we auction off? I can probably spare a plug of Utricularia livida, and I will be dividing up my babies from the tanks in the office, but other than that, who will supply the plants to be auctioned?
On a side note, I have hundreds of seedlings coming up. Assuming they all do ok and I don't mess it up, I was planning on a 3 month giveaway in 2016 with the seedlings I didn't like as much for my own personal collection. One plant a week for three months (or longer, depending on number of plants).
 I think the first two weeks of January would be best, as end of december everyone is broke from XMas. It can also be our "New Year, New Plants! Sarracenia Forum Auction". Just an idea.
