African Violet Exchange

WANTED: Starting over green house freeze.

10 years ago

looking to trade seeds-plants for gesnariads or AVs
I use to grow hundreds of gesnariads before the green house accident, and i would like to start again.
Perhaps you could use something on my trade list.
I like growing from seed and they do survive zone 5 in the mailbox!

HI FS I sent you an email, I would be happy to share in the spring. I have many leaves started but they won't be big enough to ship until spring. I have mostly purples and blues from Lyndon Lyon, such as Paradise Lost and Starry Night Blue. I can ship in 2" pots or wait until they bloom. i sent you an email, that is the best way to reach me as I don't reach the exchange too often.

I, too, have lots of extra baby AV plants - but unlike the seeds, they don't do well in zone 5 mail this time of year! If you send me an email in spring, I'd be happy to box up a bunch for you, Flyingsquirrel. i do have some seeds from my streps if you are interested. Let me know.
