CLOSED: '09 Fall Frenzy Swap Page #3

Hi mekos

I had requested these seeds from you: coral touch-me-nots, nemesia 'paint box' pelargonium 'summer showers' castor bean black, lavender moon vine, lantana mixed.

BTW no worries! I'm sure other folks don't mind reminding you so they can get those wonderful seeds. Sorry for your little mishap. I have found that you can copy and paste that list into a word document to print and you can copy and paste from a word document into the post. Each time I do an update to the post I print out a paper copy, too and that is what I make penciled in addtions to until I update the post again. Helps keep me straight! Might help you, too, so there is no angst when you post next time!

Tonya

nbgard, I just sent you a follow up dmail about those blue chiquita's now that you've found more :-)

I'll put you down guam! (and reply to your dmail!)

Well it seems all is pretty quiet on the piggy front in my brief absence.

Glad I went to vote when I did, cause I got to meet the mayor and tell him at least one big thing that needs to be fixed with the city of Boston (didn't tell him I wasn't voting for him). He hooked me up with an assistant who'll hopefully deal with it, and I also got a city councilor on the case. Not a bad hour's work, I think.

Hey Neal,

I'm grazin' at your trough again. (I think I'm mixing up my animals again...do pigs ever graze?)

Purdy please:
Consolida ambigua, Larkspur mixed colors
Ipomoea purpurea 'Aomurasakizyouhantenshibori'
Nicotiana alata
Tanacetum parthenium 'Flore Pleno'- double Feverfew

Tonya

Good for you. : ) Ya I grabbe d me soem human fuel adn had to watch a coupel of soap operas to make up for missing Dancign with the Stars last night.

Thanks you guys, I got these down and filling bags now so I'll get the list back up later tonight. I don't want to forget anyone and don't know how to do the copy and paste thingy. I'm new on computers , too.

Clancampbell, would love to try some of YOUR gazania.

WOW -- amazing how fast things fly - especially when you're off line a while.... I'm back home now.. so i'll be keeping up... I only browsed the past 100 or so posts ... and gotta tell ya an easy way to scan for things.... I do this all the time...

use the FIND feature in your browser.... either up in the menu tool bar... click EDIT then FIND
a lil box pops up and I'll just type in "tcs" and it will highlight that text... that way i can see if anyone send me a request in the mssgs....

or use the same thing to locate who has what see you may be looking for.... IE, 'agastache'
type that in the FIND box/window and it will find all the listings for any agastache.

I did that with the Salvias last night to make sure I did not miss out on any goodies... though KLS did snag one that i was eyeing...

anyhooo that's just a favorite tool that i use.

-------------------------

way back on the other thread, Cris [ClanCampbell] posted that she is out of Gaillardia... I have one, it's a dwarf. The plant tag read "Indian Summer" but when i did a google on it, it came up empty. But it was a nice compact short plant.

I"ll be adding to my list later ... I will have a lot of Agastache Honey Bee White for sure... at least i'm 99% sure they are White and not Blue... I will have to check my notes to see which one i had sown 3 of ... and took up north.... though i did find a plant tag that said "White".

and i will have a lot of single pack seeds.

Terese

What you have for me is correct also Mekos ... I think I've been a greedy pig....

additional note: using the find feature to access that pop up box Terese mentioned above might be as easy as clicking the CTRL key (usually around your SHIFT keys) and then the 'F' key...it is a big time saver :-)

d

Patti

This is fun! Star you sure have a way of triggering a flurry of activity!

Maxine... no -- Wollersheim in Prairie du Sac I think it is.

and yes... Door County has great wineries too, just been a while since i've been up there.

and for these.... aubretia cascade blue
i just read "blue" and had to google it... nice ground cover with pretty blue flowers...
http://streambankgardens.com/Aubrieta_Cascade_Blue.html

well... i'm doing my very best to keep it at 20 seeds or less this year.... i'm at 15, so i'm doing good. though some still have not posted their HAVES lists yet.

does anyone know if i can get seeds off of VERONICA Darwin's Blue?

I'm going to go out and check... I got the plant this year, so i have no idea if it produces seeds.

here another pic of them.

Star, I just noticed my name was on the wrong Viola. I oinked for the Viola cornuta Sorbet Series Peach frost but I'm listed under the Orchid one. I hope I can still get the peach please! Thank you! :)

Sorry abotu that Danita. Sure cna get the Peach one. Wil correct it when I do my next edits : )

Thank You! :)

Question on the Honey Bee, Agastaches....

is "White" generally taller than "Blue" ??

I also will have seeds for Agastache Mexicana Purple.... you can find it anywhere if you google it, but it is more compact [18" tall] than the other Anise Hyssops I have.

I need to go thru all my images and post some to PlantFiles ... I should have those.... and there are not many photos for those.

Terese

ooohhhhh... OINKing madly!!! Star, pleaseeeeee let me have one of the Rud Choc Orange!! :)

Colchie, I've got you down for the gazania :)

Mekos, mine is correct!

thanks.. woohoo

Edited to add: I got so darn excited about Star's Rud, I forgot to say that's the last of the gazania LOL
