WANTED: Prearranged Louisville Swap June 2nd 2007 trades

I have many things to trade, and some to just share with no trade necessary.

I have lost some things, and need to do a bit of updating in my spare time (??), but would love to start getting a few things potted up, and waiting for the swap.

Please show me your have and wish list. Hopefully I can get a lot of the extras shared/traded, and find a few things of interest from my wish list, or things I don't even know I need/want yet.

Please be sure and post here, so I can best keep track of any interests, and drop me an email as well. A lot of emails via GW are (or were) going into cyberspace, so feel free to get my email addy from the form here, and to email me privately.

I look forward to meeting a lot of folks there!

Sue

    Sue, I would like to have crocosmia too ;))
    I didn't see anything on your want list that I have-
    I will check again when I am 'more awake' LOL!

    Sharon,
    I have Dragon's Blood Sedum- I may have lamb's ears at my Mom's house- I have purple German bearded iris- you want some of them?

    My exchange page is WAY out of date- My little city cottage garden is about full- I can't think of anything I really need- I would find room for day lillies and crocosmia though :))

    will check here again soon

    OK, I've finally got my exchange page done. I feel like a jerk because my wants so heavily outweigh my offers. Hopefully, if we have a fall swap some of the things that I do have will have increased so I will have more to offer.

    Sue, your exchange list is a smorgasboard, but I don't have the first thing on your want list except maybe the pink poppies. Let me know if you see anything that does interest you or if you'd like the poppies. I'd love to trade.

  • broodyjen

    Ok, here's what I'm bringing to the swap. Not much this year, I'm afraid....

    Malva Zebrina--several babies in 4" pots
    Rudbeckia--several babies in 4" pots, sprouted between "Cherokee Sunset" and "Prairie Sun," so don't know who their parents are
    Chocolate Morning Glory--2 small pots with 3 plants each, started from seed

    Will dig if anyone wants:
    Lily of the Valley (white)
    Spiderwort
    Unnamed Hosta
    Lambs Ear
    Mint
    Liriope

    I also have the following garden items I'll bring if anyone wants them:
    3 green plastic hanging baskets
    3 white plastic hanging baskets
    5 6' bamboo stakes (dyed green)
    Tiny ziplock bags for storing seeds
    "oasis" good for cut flower arrangements
    Nursery pots in various shapes & sizes

    Also check my trade lists for seeds I have.

    Please let me know if you see something on my list that you want me to dig or bring. I'm not going to dig things unless I have a pre-arranged home for them.

    I would really love to get some daisies at the swap. Other than that, I'm keeping an open mind. We're hopefully going to be moving this summer, so I have no idea what to plan for, but will be nursing some pots for awhile, I guess.

    Looking forward to the swap!

    Jen....would the bamboo stakes work for tomatoes?
    Sharon....I have the astible for you...both Pink and white.

  • broodyjen

    Sue, I will put your name on a Malva and a Choc MG.

    I am so happy about those lilacs. Been thinking about them all winter....

    Jen

  • wish2okc
    16 years ago

    Sue,
    I will bring an azalea for you. In advance, thanks so much for the things you are bringing me!

    Sharon,
    I planted a variegated weigelia this spring and will be happy to bring you a cutting or will try to propagate one for you. Let me know.

    Jen
    I'd like to try Lily of the Valley if you have plenty of it, also spiderwort. Is your liriope variegated by any chance? I have a Little Henry Itea potted up for you. Do I have anything else you would like?

    Marcia
    I also have a Little Henry for you!

    Everyone,
    I have small amounts of these (everything planted in the past year):

    Ajuga 'Chocolate Chip'
    Huntington Artemesia - can bring cuttings.
    Mum - Sheffield (I think)
    Moonflower - 2 seedlings
    Dwarf Cleomes, probably Sparkler - recently started from seed
    Purple Wave Petunias - recently started from seed
    Rudbeckia 'Cherokee Sunset' from seed

  • wish2okc
    16 years ago

    Forgot, I also have Angelina sedum that I can take cuttings from.

  • marciagaye
    16 years ago

    This is what I have already dug and saved for trades:

    Jen.....the toad lily
    Sue....I have one tomato plant....I think it is a cherry tomato. It came up from seed from last year. Also the DL's. My friend would love the oregano or any herbs that anyone has. The dianthus is great... I will baby them and we will see what happens.
    Sharon...astible, pink and white
    Wishfulthinking....I would love any wave petunias.
    If I have forgotten anything....Please let me know!

    I have also dug some "candy lilies", have Thalia bulbs, baby blue fescue, obedience plants, snow on the mountain. I have one large pink sedum potted up and a baby from that. I will contine digging...I should have some iris, anemone, sedum. I did save the seeds from the Hellebros this year.

  • broodyjen
    16 years ago

    Wishfulthinking: I will bring you a pot of Lily of the Valley. I will divide you some spiderwort, too. The liriope is variageted, I will bring a clump for you.

    I would like a moonflower seedling, please.

    Jen

  • wish2okc
    16 years ago

    Thanks Jen! It doesn't even have to be a big clump of the liriope. I just thought it would be nice to have for sort of an exclamation point in one part of the flower bed. Plus, it usually spreads so fast I can start separating it later if need be.

    Marcia, I will bring some purple waves for you.

    Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. My husband & I finally put together the cabinet we bought 6 months ago for garage storage. Wow! There is as floor in my garage. Who knew?

  • marciagaye
    16 years ago

    Wishfulthinking....you can have iris and daylilies from me. I am not sure if I will have the iris dug by then, but we can get them out real fast.

  • wish2okc
    16 years ago

    Marcia, Fresh dug is always good. Thanks! Oh, can you email me your address? I don't know where to go!

  • Chemocurl zn5b/6a Indiana

    16 years ago

    Wishful,

    I'd like a small start of the Ajuga 'Chocolate Chip'
    and mum Sheffield (you think)...if you have them to spare.

    Sue...who still has to dig and pot everything yet...Yikes!

  • wish2okc
    16 years ago

    Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!

    Haven't gotten your address or directions yet. Just updated my member page so you can just click on my email. Anyway, my email address is jane_delorenzo@yahoo.com. Going out now to get my plants together. Its really hot & humid here...but no rain for weeks. Looking forward to tomorrow! Jane
