Hi Everyone, thanks for giving me an idea of what you like, i will do my best. There is quite a few veggies coming in, and not many people wanting them, so you may get a few...remember you can always use them for trade. With that being said, Ill do my best !!

I recd seeds today from Tammy and floodthelast.

Tammy, thanks for the adorable watermelon memo set ! Very sweet of you !

There were a few people that mailed in very small envies, so I WILL be mailing back in a bigger one..there wont be enough room to use the ones ya sent.

Thanks for all the wonderful seeds you all have sent in !

March 1 is the last day to mail !!

I plan to mail on Monday. I am going to work on my enve on Saturday evening. Thanks. Nichol

Glad you liked it. Thanks for hosting the swap. I am sure it is time consuming and we all appreciate it.

Tammy

Changed my mind..lol I'll take anything flowers, veggies or herbs off my list. Hope that helps! lol I've got a 15yr old that'll eat anything so no worries on veggies going to a good home! And an 11yr old that's finally into gardening flowers this year, and I love to cook so herbs from my list would be most welcomed as well. :)

Hope everyone is having a nice day!
Wendy

my package is in the mail--it ended up being all flowers(over 100 different ones)!

Hi Kym,
I will be mailing out tomorrow.

Jaynine, WOW, I am glad I am not the only one with 100 packs of commercial seeds...

I think everyone will be happy with the seeds coming in.

** A few people sent packs of seeds with like 50 or more seeds in them, I have taken some of them, and made two packs out of it....and YOU will be able to get a little more back this way. Hope all is ok with this, but I thought it would be nice for you all to get back as much as possible.

OK, Keep those envies coming !!! I am looking forward to sorting them for you.

Glad to hear your receiving lots of veggies. Good luck in completing the swap- boy,you are a glutton for punishment!A veggie guy.

Oh I wish I could remember how many I sent in. I wrote a note about what I wanted but I'm not clear on that one either now, lol. Basically anything from 09 is good with me, flowers can be older. I have more veg. than I can use and anything I get will be for next year.

I'm excited for this swap. So many friendly faces and what not.

I received another envie today !!

jaynine, your envie arrived today ! WOW, amazing...

There are some AWESOME seeds coming in !!

Floodthelast, I counted all packs, and wrote down a total as they came in.

Thanks everyone...I know you all will be happy when the envies come back !

Bumping with a message!

I'm stuck home in the snowstorm today. So taking the opportunity to get my seeds together for this swap. Half the package for me, half for the swap. I'll be taking them with me to Kym's house to help her sort and pack. This will be my first time helping with the sorting and I'm really looking forward to learning how it's done.
Here's one I'm bring along -

Remy, no problem...I am sure Ill have them before Monday.

Thanks to you ALL for sending such an amazing selection of seeds, I really think everyone will be very happy.

Kamil, your seeds arrived today ! What a great selection !

I sent in a lot of goodies!! Can't say exactly what, but trust me there's some pretty cool stuff in my envie. I am SO excited about this swap.

On the subject of whether I prefer edibles, herbs or flowers...
I prefer a mix, as long as they are all SMALL plants.

Is it OK if I ask for a "compact and dwarf selection" of mixed seeds? Since the only growing space I have is my 10'x10' paved patio I want small stuff. :)

I need some dwarf veggies that are COMPACT. (Most squash, pumpkins, melons, indeterminate tomato vines, and corn plants are too big for my space).
I also need small container-grown fruits such as strawberry, garden huckleberry, wonderberry, pepino.
I love all herbs *except* marigold, chives and cinnamon basil (have oodles of those already because I use them as companion plants with my veggies to keep pests off). Really could use some chamomile seeds!
I don't have space to grow many ornamentals, but any little windowbox type flowers that are fragrant such as Stock 'Tudor tapestry,' Nemesia 'Shooting Stars', Viola Hybrida 'Rose Shades' or Cephalophora aromatica, would be perfect for me. I'm off to go add those to my GW want list! :)

*BIG E-HUGS* to hostess Kym- in advance- for doing this for all of us!!

Just noticed I wasn't on the last list? You had already recieved my seeds earlier up. Just wanted to make sure you didn't forget me:-)

Tammy

Thanks Tammy, mistakes happen when I am in a hurry, but your seeds are here safe and sound. I have been getting them all ready, so when the last envie comes in, I can get started sorting.

I have brown paper bags, with your seeds inside...and each bag is marked, with how many you sent in, and if you want veggies, herbs, flowers, or all. I found this worked well last year...so I am trying it again. Then they will go back into your bubble envies, and be mailed.

Ill keep you all updated on when I have them sorted, and ready to mail. There are a lot of seeds this season, and I cant get over the wonderful selection ! It is like going to a specialty store....LOL

Ok, I hope everyone that wanted to join, has their seeds on the way...NO MORE MAILING !!

Is anyone interested in a game of 21 questions, while you wait for them to come home ? Let me know.

Just checking in to see if my envy arrived yet. I sent with a DC# but the SO has it stashed somewhere and he doesn't remember where... lol

Hugs everyone!
Wendy

Hi Kym! Just to let you know...you missed noting you received mine on your list.

Thanks for all your hard work on this swap! - Lisa

Wendy, your seeds arrived ! I wish I had the time to break them down into smaller packs ! I did some that came in early, and they only sent a few packs.

Heather, I dont know how to thank you ! I love the Tulips and canna, HUGS, and much thanks !! ( I will post on the "spring" forum too, just incase they were from there)recieved your seeds too !

Chell, received your seeds today, they were quick ! I also emailed you.

Jen, I received your seeds today also ! Thanks so much !

Many people sent in ALOT of seeds, I beleive this may take me a little more time then I thought, BUT I will keep you all posted, and I will be mailing them ALL on the same day.

Have a wonderful weekend !

*whew! glad they got there safe n sound! I wasn't sure if I was supposed to break them down or not..lol

Take all the time you need sorting :) Don't stress yourself out over it. Don't mind us peeking over your shoulder and nudging you along... lol j/k :P

Hugs everyone,
Wendy

I received seeds today from Dorisl, and grovespirit, thanks sooo much ! ANother great batch of seeds ! I have spent last night, and today doing some prep work, and trying to divide a few of the packs...so there will be more to go around.

(IF you have sent in, please let me know ! There is a huge pile here, and many didnt have screen names)

I have not heard anything from the people above.....If I dont hear from you by SAT night, I will assume you have dropped from the swap. Seeds will be started on sorting after that.

Thanks to you ALL for joining, sharing your seeds, and I am sure you will all be happy with the return envies !

Ok, off to work on the seeds, have a great day !

Kym

Kym ~ Would it help any if I sent reminder emails to those above? I don't mind doing it if it helps you out any!

~Wendy

Yay, glad my seeds arrived safely.

I bet Kym is having fun looking at all our pretty seed packages. :) If I were in her shoes, I might well feel a lot like a kid in a candy store!

bump, so desperate for news on this one. Want seeds, have fun playing Kym. Do you ever throw them in the air and swim in the piles?
