 Retail... probably. We have one of the largest (rumoured to be the largest) 
collections of Hyacynths in the world just out of Memphis. They can be had 
for a few thousand wholesale. I know a breeding pair (proven) will bring 40 
to 50 grand.

 Be wonderful if they could. Outside of Memphis the only one I have seen is 
at the St. Louis Zoo.
