I'm Hosting a spring Plant/cutting exchange.This is 2 seperate exchanges.You can be in both(please send lists seperately if are in both...for my sanity kissies .And everyone should do delivery confirmation slips.Its so much easier when can track and is only .50

I'm looking forward to this.I enjoyed the last one I was in. clp

Ok how is this working? Do we send cuttings to you? Or do you match wants with haves?
Posted By: njoynit Re: SPRING PLANT/CUTTING EXCHANGE - March 5th, 2007 at 01:51 PM
No.you send them to the persons name I give you.I'll do best to match wants/haves.A person gardening a long time might be easier to have large choice from VS one who's only gardened a short time.Those of us further south may have stuff ready now where someone up north in the snow belt may have hard ground still.If I still lived in Indpls....I'd need a pick axe& hammer to get a plant out for tradeing right now,but would be easier end of May.It can be more than 3 plants.I just set a minumum.

I'm looking forward to this.I hosted a butterfly hummer plant exchange a few years ago on another forum.I even had someone scare me...they put those plastic bug rings from halloween in the box.even on a few of the plants..lol bought choked on my beer too.

I would like to join the swap.
I have day lilies, iris and hostas to exchange; however, I do not know the colors of any. Because of my dog, children and chickens, all labels were scrambled last year.

Ducks are good bug eaters...bet chickens are too.I get them dog issues too.sometimes they play fetch with my plants....after removing from pot.


Thats ok about tags.I got daylillys and know color but not name

Okay, one final question, just so I have EVERYTHING clear confused
I assume by whole plant, you mean a division, and a cutting would be, just that, a cutting off of a plant. Right? Let me know if I have it right or completely wrong! shocked
Thanks,
Jacquie

Posted By: njoynit Re: SPRING PLANT/CUTTING EXCHANGE - March 8th, 2007 at 12:19 AM
yes cuttings are a cutting off a plant.Some plants are easier to root than others so some may want their cuttings rooted already is why I asked if someone wants a preferance.

Dianne...all those are great for exchange.

daylilly DB orange w red
a pink once blooming rose
alhoa rose HT

Hi Njoynit,

Think i won't be able to join, because i'm in Holland (Europe) or there must be others Gardenhelper-members in Europe?
Otherwise i'd love to participate!
