HAVE: & Want - for the Olympia Trade

15 years ago

Hi all- I'm looking forward to the Olympia trade coming up. Here's some things I have to share and a list of stuff I'm looking for - but I'm open to other offers too. Let me know if you see anything you like.

Lots of these Bearded iris:

Crimson King (1893, red-violet, repeat bloomer in good conditions, 4-6 weeks of flowers when established, 24")

Prospero (1920, medium purple bitone, 36", english)

Raspberry Jam (1980, 12", bright fuchsia, early bloomer)

Also a tall, tailored peach and a tall variegata (gold over raisin purple) without names, tho just as lovely as any. Photos of any on request.

Sisyrinchium striatum

assorted Sempervivum chicks

Let me know if you'd like anything. I'm happy to trade, but if you want some irises just ask. They need homes and are up for grabs. I'm looking for things that can take poor soil, dry summer conditions and are deer resistant like lavender, rosemary, yuccas, sea holly, etc. I especially need yuccas. =)

Hi Mike,
I'm not planning on going to the Olympia trade, but I will be in the olympia area. I've got a bunch of yuccas you can have. Just let me know if you could meet and trade.

I can't believe I actually have something you need!! :-) I've been mooching off of you for several years now and have some gorgeous hosta and wonderful little Minnesota Mixed up Kid as a result.

I have a little yucca that has cute curly hair that needs a home. I divided mine earlier this year and it has been languishing away in a pot since then. I think it's yucca filamentosa. Also I believe I have sea holly, but will double check.

Raspberry Jam sounds nice and I could use a replacement sisrynchium striatum since mine has disappeared.

Thanks and let me know if you're interested.

My mom would like some of the Crimson King iris. What can we offer you in return? My list of plants I have is on my gardenweb site. My Mom also has 4" Campanula persicifolia, currant seedlings, 1-yr old foxglove, ajuga and columbine.

Hi Mike,
I would love to give some of your irises a home. I'll look today to see if there's anything out there that you might be interested in.
Thanks,

Hi again, Mike,
I found a couple of lavenders - one is Lavender Lady and the other is a small seedling, but I don't know the variety. I have several different ones that it could have come from. It does have a nice scent though.
