Hi Kym.

I see you're already posting. Good for you. What do you have to trade right now?? I have mixed asiatics and pink dahlias that I haven't checked on yet. Planning to pull up the tubers and bulbs to store over winter.. Let me know to see if we can work something out..

Lindy

Unfortuately we had a unexpected hard freeze last night so the dahlias don't look too good today.. And I don't have enough cold hardy stuff to give away at this time.. So, I'm going to hold on to my asiatics for now.. Sorry.

I have purple iris...


They stay green all winter here so and I have some new younger ones that are coming up this year that I separated last spring. Should bloom this year. Im growing reds and blues from last fall but not enough yet to share. Need to get some whites for around my flag pole this spring! I have a variety of cannas but since Im new to swapping, I don't know where my different colors are cause I didn't make notes last spring. Wouldn't want to give you more reds when you don't need it. I know for sure where one striped leaf orange canna is planted and I could dig it up in the next couple weeks and pull you a tuber if you're interested. I sure wish I had marked them last fall

I have wood sorrel bulbe here, if anyone wants some.
They look like shamrock leaves, and get pink flowers.
They grow in neat little mounds, but they tend to spread, so I have been using them to make borders here. Got those done, started surrounding trees...done... ummm...any takers for this years crop?
They are edible, and have a lemoney sour taste.

If anyone has ever chewed on "sour grass", you were nipping at the same thing, just the wild yellow kind... that is much smaller, and more spreading... same taste.

I also have some kind of wild bulb here, that grows all over in mid spring.
It gets leaves like a spider plant, but soilid green.
It has pretty purple flowers on it.
It dies off about early June, and we mow it down.
I have to keep the hubby off of it every year, as it comes up in big areas in the yard.
I have moved alot of it into a bed, but there is more here, than I will ever use.
Looks to be some kind of spiderwort?
I'm not sure. But it is beautiful in the mid spring, and I am so sick of "yellow" by then...heh heh...

Let me know if you want any of this.
Hubby is threatening to yank out the rest, and toss it. He hates mowing around it.
The plants get about 2 ft tall. Day Lilly type leaves, but smaller.

Shamrock


I'll be glad to take some of those Shamrock looking things.
I have Orange lily bulbs if you want them...Right now though they have already come up so I'd probably just ship them in baggies for you.

See my profile for what I have.
