    Hi Pauline. I can't be positive this far in advance (although I guess it's only 6 weeks now :-), but I'm sure going to try to make it. Please put me on your list.

    Thanks Linda. I sent Pauline an E-mail. I've never done a swap, so I'm hoping to get lots of advice from all of you.

    Mary,
    I am checking in. When you sent in your first inquiry I did a reply to your address. Did you get it? I have been doing that for everyone that has written I hope that people have been getting the replies. IF not I had better just reply to the thread.

    I won't make this one due to being very involved in Marigold Days that weekend - darn for not being there but fun with our festival. I'm rooting a number of brugmansia cuttings for the sou. mn swap the following week so if anyone wants to make a claim maybe someone can pick it up for you. Wish I could be there...........but if you'r done digging by Sat B4 and would like a break, come on down to Mantorville. My house is right by the soundstage and I'd love to talk gardening. Will

    I will be on vacation until the 21st. When I get back I will send out the details.

    I will not be able to make it (neither date was good) as the 10th is the same date as the Minnesota Rock Garden Society meeting in which I am heavily involved. But . . .

    I do plan on dropping of some goodies a day before. Not sure what all yet, but it will include lily bulblets or bulbs of these possible varieties:

    Avignon
    L. davidii wilmontii
    Pisa
    L. speciosum rubrum
    Soireé
    Sunday Dress
    Shirley
    Sweet Surrender
    Tiger Babies
    Unknown name-yellow recurved petals, maroon spots, pollenless. Does well in shadier spots.

    I can dig pieces of Flamingo and Klein Fontaine Maidenhair grass (Miscanthus). Let me know.
    Also if anyone would like pieces of Hosta 'Aphrodite', 'Scepter', or Hosta clausa var. clausa, let me know too. Clausa is very stoloniferous and makes a good groundcover, but is not good in the perennial garden as it will spread all among your other perennials.
