HAVE: Dahlias-next Spring

Posted by chrisrobt z8 MI,WA (My Page) on

I'll have a good supply of named (and some unnamed) dahlia tubers for next March; I haven't dug yet as they are still blooming quite well. Also, I like to make sure they are healthy so want to keep them over the winter myself. Still, perhaps I can tempt some at the Green Elephant to part with some perennials in anticipation of dahlia tubers in the spring.

Last year I lost all my coneflowers, delphiniums, gaillardias, coreopsis, asters and would love to replant. Also, I no longer have any shasta type daisies.

I love anything fragrant too...

I have hesperantha blooming right now if anyone is interested.

Christine, I could bring you shasta daisies, asters (rose pink), galliarda(burgundy) coreopsis ( limerock ruby(red) grandiflora(yellow); american dream(pink); early sunrise(yellow and burgundy in the middle. My niece is bringing in some coneflowers. My daughter will be bringing asters(lavender). I love dahlias. I have quite a few but would love some more. See you at the swap. Tita

Tita, I've stored your reply in my 2007 trade folder so I don't forget. Still, I'd appreciate it if you remember to remind me before the March GE exchange (you forget when you're >60)

Hi Christine,
I will bring you at least a couple of asters and a threadleaf coreopsis as well. I will see what else I can gather up. You have such a beautiful selection of dahlias and I'd love to have a chance at some of them. Thanks!
Susan

I have a gallon delphinium 'Guardian Lavender' I can bring in exchange for a dahlia tuber for my Mom.

I have catmint walkers low (2007 Perennial of the year) and coreopsis Moonbeam to trade for some of your lovely dahlias.

Sorry I missed you at the trade. I will hold a delphinium for you in the spring.

I missed a few of you at the trade as I had to leave early for other obligations. WE can still do trades in the Spring for dahlias; get in touch with me before the next Green Elephant.

Hi
I just saw your album and loved it. My dahlias did not do terribly well last year but I am willing to try again this year--especially after seeing your photos. I will send you an e-mail with somethings that might interest you in exchange for some of your dahlias. Looking forward to it
Flor de Maria
