Would anyone like to have a small swap here at my home in Sept My Neighbor said we could use his privian it is almost in my back yard :)

If anyone would be interrested or not.

Your Smile & Friendship Mean More then the plant :) Although I love all that you shaded with me :) .

Ahhh! Kris and I can finally relax. We had a great time at the swap but were sorry to have to swap and run. We really wish we could have stayed to chat and visit with you all. Next year should be better.

The long road trips were safe. Our neice and her family were very happy we made the trip down for her graduation party. Glad her sister doesn't graduate for 3 years yet.

The plant sale was our best year yet. Thanks to all who sent plants home for it. It feels great to have it out of the way early. Now I can enjoy the rest of the summer doing my own gardening. If any of you made it up for the sale, I'm sorry I didn't get to say hi. Those crazy folks think I am the resident gardening expert and send all the questions my way. If they saw all the weeds in my gardens they would think again.

Leann

Um I really think the shade is the best place for the ginger. I had it there and it really thrived!!! I am not sure about the September swap for me. Will have to see what transscribes!!! Thanks everyone my new plants look great and all are doing well! Ronna

Hi All, thanks to susie for another great swap. (for all of you who were there Sat. no baby as of yet, it was a false alarm. ^_^)

Thanks Birdie sorry about the false alarm , Lots of work to do in my garden today if weather lets me you all have a great week love hearing from you.
