A Gardeners Forum Forums Gardening Reference Gardening in 2006 Fall Fling Seed Exchange Pt IV

just popin in to see how things were going.
i see more members got their seeds , so exciting!

I cant wait to hear that mine made it there....finally!!!

Tammy, have you gotten my envelope yet? I sent it priority mail on Fri. I also sent my daughter a box priority to Vermont at the same time. She got hers Mon. Surely it doesn't take longer than hers. I'm not so worried as just curious.

Sounds like you are waiting too DianeB.....me too!!

I GOT MY seeds TODAY! TAMMY! Thank all of you who sent in seeds! i didnt exspect em this soon! what a surprize!!! got all on my wish list too!

Buzylady, I got yours a couple of days ago and your exchange is already back in the mail. I'm sorry I thought I had posted that yours arrived. But I've been loopy so I might have just thought I did. I hope you like what I chose for you.

Penny I'm sorry to say that yours and Kennyso's are still amoung the missing. Maybe tomorrow.

For all of you that sent in Aquatic plants thankyou very much. They were in very short supply and there were many requests.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow!!!

Tammy,

Sorry you aren't feeling well -- something bad is going around here, too. DD has pneumonia and dh was sniffling last night. (There goes my hole digger for the million bulbs I have to get planted!)

Have you opened my envelope? I tried to put in as many different things as I had, but frankly I have more quantity than variety.

Sorry about the loose seeds that got caught in the plastic....I was getting very bored with the whole operation toward the end. It's a lot of darn W-O-R-K!

Why don't you collect them all in one envelope, send out an envelope of "Cottage Mix" -- just don't send it back to me! hahahaha.

Oh Tammy I glad you got them. And I'll be looking forward to getting mine. I may not have seen the post. I've been painting my bathroom. So haven't been here too much lately.

Hi PartyGirl, I have 84 seed packets choosen for your envelope so I still have some to go. But I'm getting there. At this point the problem is trying not to double up on any seeds. Sometimes I don't see where I've already put something in a packet and then the person gets several of something lol. It's actually easy to get confused lol. But I think you will be happy with what I have for you. I'm hoping so anyway. As soon as I get kenny and penny's envelopes in I'll be able to finish yours and send it out. Shouldn't be to long now.

Hey Buzylady, Hopefully you will see yours sometime this week. Good Luck with the painting.

Hello tcmers, I'm so glad that you like what I chose for you. It's been a lot of fun doing it. Although I needed a boost occassionally. It can get scary where you have all those seeds spread out all over lol.

Here's to hoping that cute little mailman brings me Kenny & Penny's seed tomorrow.

I am hoping too Tammy!!!
I cant wait to hear some news!

Sibyl, do you make all your seed packets?

Crossing my fingers Tammy, might be a bit late to say this, but...you can send me multiple packets of the same thing to me, I can always share them with my teachers abd people around the block!

Hi tk!
I'm sorry you have been sick lately. I sure hope you start feeling better soon. I can't believe you are handling the seed fall fling with you feeling so badly but it sure does sound like you are doing a terrific job! Wow! I'm impressed! Anyway, I'm looking so forward to receiving my seed envelope, I can hardly wait. Feels like Christmas! I'll let you know when I get it. And thanks again, hope you feel better real soon!

Darn it!!! I told you in the note NOT to bother with sending me 1:1. I sent extras from my garden and that's all they were -- extras! Anything you send back will be a bonus, please don't spend any extra time on it -- doubles won't kill me, and neither will it if you're a couple dozen short! Believe me, I have a LOT of seed and virtually no experience growing from seed except marigolds. Love sprinkling out those marigold seeds every spring! LOL! In any case, whatever you send will make me happy. Or it will show up in the next swap. LOL!

However if you find out Kenny sent some Celosias that look like brains or upside-down pizza slices, I want 'em! (He had a swap offer on Celosias a while back is the reason I say this, but they might have been the feather-kind.)

Take care!

I found this at the bottom of page 1 , Fall Fling Part IV, just so Tammy doesn't think she's losing it or dreaming of the postman so much! Now you've got me dreaming of your postman!

lol @ Melcon6 Way to go rofl.

Hey PartyGirl, I'm afraid I'm just one of those people. Unless I have a definite number to send back you get the same as you give lol. Decisions just aren't my forte. One for one is simple and that's pretty much me, very very simple. Sorry if you got a little overwhelmed. But I'm sure they will be good trade material. And you can always do what I do and haunt the newbie room and send packages of seed to newbies or gardeners that have moved and are starting over or gardeners that have had reversals. There is always a way to find good homes for seeds.

Hi Floweringchild, I'm sure it won't take long at all for yours to arrive. I hope you like my choices. And thankyou again for participating.

Good Morning Kenny & Penny, I've got my fingers crossed. If not today I may have to tackle my good looking mailman and ask him what is up with the mail. It's a good excuse don't you think?

Take care everyone and have a good day.

Go easy on him Tammy

Hi Tammy,
Got my envelopes of seeds today! Thanks bunches, they are really great!

Triss, your seed envelope is so cute. I want to make them too. Will you share your templet?

And Sibyl, I love your seed envelopes as well. So cute. How original! I'm envious.

Hey yall, anyone have planting instructions for Cleomes seeds?

Rec'd seeds for palm trees, what species are they, from bibee.

Thanks again Tammy. Hope you are feeling better.

Some one said it was a jelly palm. Go to my photobucket and take a look at them.
