Hi, there are several homes soon to be demolished to make way for a freeway ramp. The yards have lots of old fashioned cottage style perennials. I hate to see the bulldozers get them all. If any one wants any of these I could bring them to the Bonney Lake trade this Saturday.

Corsican Hellebore-Helleborus argutifolius(green flowers)

Hardy geranium-geranium macrorrhizum-pink flowers-scented lvs

Snowflake-leucojeum sp.- white flowers

pink peonys

dark purple tall bearded iris

kniphofia

calla lily-white flowers

perennial bachelor button-centaurea-blue flowers

LMK ASAP if anyone wants these. Karen

    Karen, I would love some Snowflake-leucojeum sp.- white flowers. I found a picture of them and I know them as snowdrops. I would also like some Corsican Hellebore and some pink peonys. Anything I could bring you?
    Thanks,
    Teresa

    Hi Karen,
    I would love some of the snowflakes, a pink peony and an iris or two. You are a sweetie to rescue those plants. I'd hate to see them go too. Thanks!

    Wow! are you just going to sneak in and get them? Brave soul you are.
    I'd love some leucojeum, the tall dark iris and the calla lilies, please if you can, but be careful.
    thanks

    Thank you. Michele

    I'd love some of the bearded iris if it's not too late.
    thanks!

    Also, I'm a new gardner - just moved into my house in October so if you have any others that no one claims, I'd gladly give them a new home!
    (I can offer empty pots and baked goods in return on Saturday) thanks so much!

    Hi I have plants for everyone. I am not going to have time to pot all these plants up. I will just bring them bareroot in plastic bags with your names on them. There is bindweed and horsetail growing in with these plants. You should soak them when you get home and remove all the soil before planting them in your yard. There was a clematis I rescued also. It has leaves like a tangutica which is a species variety with nodding yellow flowers, but of course you won't know for sure until it blooms. Does any one want this? LMK See ya Saturday. Karen

    Hi Karen, I'd like to grow the Clematis. A bag for it is fine. Thanks, Elaine.
