Here is the deal. I'm slowly reclaiming my property from neglect. It is all clay and rocks for the most part and I'm limited as to how much I can do in a day. So my seeds are sitting here waiting and I'm worried that they are getting old and won't be viable.

So If you are willing to take some of my seeds and plant them I'd be happy to give them to you. If there are many that you like I would ask that you send me a self addressed sampled evelope.

I don't want anything in trade. But I do ask that you harvest the seeds and when you have a surplus that you trade them on this website.

If this is ok with you let me know. If this is not ok please delete the post.

I'm sorry sweetheart it's capenetuia or campbellia 'blue chip'. But I know exactly what you mean about having a space already picked out for it. That's the way I was about my peonies, tropicana, and mock orange to name a few.

dwolf419 I answered your pm, if you have more questions or I need to clarify please let me know.

I'd have to go through the boxes of seeds one packet at a time to update it. That's a daunting job at the moment. But I will definitely be able to do it this winter.

TK I may have some seeds around BUT what I am really interested in doing is trading my great printer's ability for seeds! I can make some wonderful, customized seed packets in exchange for seeds. These can be mailed flat and ready to cut/paste OR already assembled....

(I love my new printer!)

We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart?
The other heart was given to another for us to find.

Have you heard anything Dodge?

I am low on black ink but plan on getting some soon. I usually make my seed packets in the fall and then work on putting them together during the winter so I'm ready for harvest and don't have to do them during the summer when I harvest since there is so much else to do.

Not quite but I give it a shot. If I were organized I'd have the common name of everything and all of it alphabetized by that. Instead half of it is common name and half of it is scientific and I loose track of things all the time because I don't remember the scientific name lol. Which means I have to go through every packet.

I've updated the seed list through the "L" but now come the really full folders. So it's not going to go any faster. So it's out to cut more of the grass. Or at least that is the plan.

They went out. I wonder what the hold up is. I've been fighting with my mail carrier. I wonder if she dumped some of my outgoing.

EmdeGardener2 did you receive your seeds?

It may be on my end then. I'm having a situation where I'm not getting all my mail. I subscribe to a magazine and didn't receive August and September. I received October Thursday but the wrapper was opened, like the magazine had been taken out and put back in. I'm wondering if she's reading my magazines and now I'm wondering if she's opening some of my mail and either keeping it or tossing it.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I don't have any more of the baby's breath but I have more of the zinnia if you would like me to try shipping it to you again. I wonder if she thought that since it was in a card it might have money in it.
