OH HAPPY DAY INDEED!!!! Thank you Kate for being so kind and patient, and hosting this swap. You're the kind of person who makes swaps so much fun!
Daisydo

Yes, I second that motion, Daisydo! Thanks Kate! I think you must be a very organized person....God Bless, Susan/giverny

>Hi, Newbie here but want to get in this when it starts again, thanks and will be waiting,Rosequeen

Here they come!!!! Coming to a mailbox near you!!! Your seeds are on the way!!! I finished packaging last night and was able to run them all to the post office today.
I hope everyone receives something they just canÂt wait to plant. I tried to find some good matches for everyone and hopefully, I didnÂt do too many doubles or give you your own seeds back. I was getting a bit blurry eyed near the end, so if I did, please forgive my error. If you sent a want list and didnÂt get your number 1 want, it just wasnÂt in the swap. But I tried to find something else I thought you would like. We had a total of 35 swappers join in the from following states: Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin. IsnÂt that amazingÂÂ.
Thank you to all the generous gardeners who joined in this swap!!! You all made this great!!
Happy planting,
Kate

OH - KATE - you are AMAZING!!
It is wonderful all the happiness you are sending out!
I can feel it already!!
Oh gosh- it will be sooo hard to stay at work and not be able to check the mail box!!
You are a trooper! Thanks for making this happen!
Julie

THANKS KATE! I ENJOYED THIS SWAP AS WELL. DEE

hello
I got my seeds today, and I love them all esspesialy the columbines. thanks for sending so many of my wants, I don't know how you did it with so many swapers.
thanks so much michelle
PS thanks julie_mm for the packet of seeds, but did I forget a trade we had set up, I don't remember why you sent the seeds for me, but I like them very much.

Kate, got my seeds and I am so very impressed - I am very very happy. Thanks for all your hard work and for doing such a great job! --- Sue G.

WHEW! I am so pleased with my seeds!
Thanks so much Kate for your hard work at pickin and choosen for us all!! It looks like your hard work is greatly appreciated by all who have received their seeds!
Micyrey, don't worry yourself- I like to go through folks wants pages and see what I can send that they might like when I join an exchange- I put the individually selected seeds in seperate bags to make it easier on the host when it comes to sorting- it is alot easier to grab a bag full o stuff than to sort through named packets- I learned that through helping Lazyweeder sort his Wish Exchange for a few years- Half the fun of an exchange is sending in folks wants- for me that is- I don't always have the time- but when I do- thats how I do it!
Thanks again Kate for a GREAT exchange! I am sure to be enjoying the fruits of "all ya alls" labor for years to come!

Hi, I got my seeds yesterday. This was a great swap. Whoever sent in the White Coneflower....thanks, this was on my wish list.

Can't wait until next year, hopefully we'll do this again.

Thanks for all your hard work on this Kate.

Alice

Yes, Julie, thank you!

I didn't open your packet until just now and was appalled that I didn't do it immediately to say thank you in my original post! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw all those seeds that were ones I really, really wanted and I just knew you had gone to my wishlist page! For some reason, when I first saw them, I thought it was like Halloween -- you know, when somebody puts a selection of candy in little individual bags for the kids? They all hold the same thing, but it prevents the older kids from reaching in and taking everything. Or like the little packs we made as room mothers -- well, you know what I'm trying to say.

Anyway, you really went above and beyond on this one, in fact you all did -- there wasn't a crummy pack in the whole package! Thank you!

Lime

ooh...oooh...OOOH! Christmas at my house today, for ME! Yippee, THANK YOU SO MUCH, KATE!!! (I don't usually write in caps, but I'm jumping up and down here!)

I literally have thousands of varieties of seeds - how did you manage to find all these new things for me? Either you're a genius, or a mind-reader, or you most likely did a whole lotta work getting the best for everyone.

You've been a terrific swap hostess, Kate, and I wish you a nice backrub, a glass of champagne, and gorgeous gardens next year!

Thanks again,

Kim

My seeds arrived today!! I feel like a kid in a candy store, but I don't have to decide..they are all mine. Thank you so much for the nice selections in my package. I realized after I looked through them, your knew more about what I really wanted than I did. I can't wait to start WSing. Thank you for being such a wonderful host. I second Kim's wishes for you!
Daisy

Kate!!! Thank you so much for all the great seeds and for being such a wonderful hostess. Thanks to everyone for sending in so many wonderful seeds for the swap. My envelope came today and it was such fun to open it and see all the surprises inside!!! What a great swap!!! I can't wait to get sowing!!!!
Joann

Seeds arrived today! Wow!!! I never expected so many seeds. Thank you everyone. I've concentrated more over the last 25 years on growing veggies and now all these different flower seeds will get me off to a good start on growing them as well.

Seeds arrived today. Wow! Thank you for sending some really great seeds. I plan on starting them in my greenhouse within the next few days,so they will be nice sized plants to share with everyone at the Mercer 2007 Spring Plantmeet & the 2007 Spring TXRU Brug Meet. Whoever sent in the Tennessee Spinning Gourd, Hourglass Gourd, & Luffa Sponge Gourd bless you! Love them! The triple daturas, blackberry lily, orchid tree, passifora to name a few. I think it's safe to say everyone who shared seeds in this Round Robin will be making alot of Texans happy come spring, as you've just made me. Please put me down for your next Round Robin. Thank you for spending so much of your time making us all happy. Dee

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.... I hope mine will be in my mailbox today! Kate, it sounds like you have outdone yourself. I will let you know as soon as they get here.

Gotta post my thanks too....to Kate and all of the kind gardeners! I adore getting these packages jam-packed with such a variety of seeds. I especially was tickled over the Speedwells, Gazania 'Kiss', and "Bowl of Cherries' Campanula.

Thanks so much to everyone, and especially to our kind hostess!

I also received my seeds! Kate- you did an awesome job. There were so many of my wants in there... truly impressive!!!

You should definitely get a hostess with the mostest award!!!

-Stephanie

I got my HUGE packet of seeds last weekend--wow! I'm really excited about growing them for next year. I guess I'd better go start smothering more grass now--I won't have enough planting room, otherwise!

Limequilla, I relly like your labels, with the germination instructions. I also like the packets that have a little photo of the flower. And "Mo," thank you SO much for taking on this big task! I owe you 9 cents postage--I'll pay you back, somehow!

Kate-thanks for hosting this RR. I received a great assortment of seeds, and somehow most of them were on my 'wanted' list.
