Gofundme for Nathan, home lost in Eaton Fire

[Glaucus]

From a Camellia group on Facebook:

"Hey friends my name is Chris Nuccio. My father Jim and uncle Tom run the camellia nursery “Nuccio’s Nursery” and I’m just trying to meet as many camellia enthusiasts at one time.
The Eaton fire in Altadena did some significant damage to the nursery, we are not allowed up there yet to save the remaining plants and there is no water. Hopefully we can get up there and salvage some soon. I believe we about half the plants (maybe less actually) but most of the equipment to operate. I know a lot of people have been trying to call hopefully this answers questions. The phone was a land line so we were unable to answer.
Everyone is fine, Tom is hospitalized for reasons unrelated to the fire.
If you have any questions I will try to answer them here."

Confirmation that Nuccio’s is gone as well.

Aw man, I was wondering about this. I'd gone up there last year for the first time and bought some landscape plants. I'd planned to go up there this Spring and buy a few more azaleas before they closed this year. I'd never seen the grounds in Spring bloom. So very sad. Now I'm just glad I got to go that one time. Tom was super cool and helpful. It must be a terrible gut punch to end their family business this way.
