Are they MG seeds for yourself or for the swap?
CLOSED: 2010 UNUSUAL SEED SWAP ANNOUNCEMENT
they are for the swap Elsa, but I will pick them for myself :)
Let me know if you don't get any. I have a few JMG seeds I can send you.
ok, will do :) thx.
Theresa, I already sent in my seeds, but I have a Morning glory you might be interested in: Ipomoea Sunrise serenade.
I only could collect a small amount of seeds, but we can trade for it later.
Sherman, I have as well some sweetpeas as marigolds, but since I already sent in my seeds (from Belgium to the USA it usually takes about a week for small envelopes, longer for bigger ones) we might have a trade later. Just let me know..

sherman99...... I harvested tons of sweet pea seeds from my garden this year....they are mostly in pastel shades, but a mixture of many colors....all were harvested together into a small bucket so they are a mixture.... I will put together several packages for the swap...they were lovely in the garden this year.... I know you will enjoy them! I also have some marigolds .... so I will send them as well.
Does anyone in the swap have echinacea to share? I'd like to acquire some 'fragrant angel' ...'pow wow wild berry' or 'flame thrower'.... I've been growing 'harvest moon' this year and they are so pretty...I'm hoping to add more this coming spring.
Deebie.... the lady slippers are so pretty... my husband is constructing a water feature which would create the perfect spot for them to grow...I'd love to have some seeds if there are enough....

NF2932,
I would also love to receive some of your sweetpea seed. I had a lovely display this past winter, but for some reason, only pink flowers. I can't get enough of their delicate fragrance...
Elsa
I agree. My husband complaints that it gives him a stuffy nose, but that doesn't prevent me from putting them everywhere...
I am getting so excited, already have a lengthy list from the seeds posted that Theresa has posted on her site, when do you think we will get the trade? Annette
The swap runs from Sept.15-Oct.15. As soon as everyone gets there seeds in I will ask for a final wishlist, then start packing up and sending off!
Theresa, do you want me to send you some seeds of the Jewel Weed? Its a cure for Poison Ivy.
Hi Theresa,
Is there still room to join in this swap?
I've enjoyed it in the past a lot! :)
Thanks,
Danita
Hi everyone!
I am still gathering and drying seeds. I didn't realize that you were starting a swap so early this year. Is there going to be an October-November swap? I will have a better selection by then.
yes, there will be a oct-nov one :) I barely have any seed gathered myself.
Dirkje hofstra, what is you DG name? I received your seeds today and want to log you in.
I am glad that there will be a later swap! Please sign me up for that one!!!
I really enjoy the seed swap :)
I am very short on time here, I will mail my seeds today, but did not list them. Actually this is the first set, I am waiting for some more things to ripen, if they do in time I will send in another package.
Off the top of my head this is what I put in the package
Lobelia tupa
crindendron hookeri, (chilian latern tree from Chile)
Lots, I mean lots, of the asarina procumbens
Embothrium
erygnium Jade Frost (variegated sea holly)
rhodochiton
Leptospermem Dark Shadows
Thats what I am remembering. So many nice seeds you all have.
What a great trade idea this is. Thank you Teresa for having in and letting me join.
Rebecca
I am so into variegated plants. I cant wait to grow those sea holly.
Is this trade now closed? or open?
If open, how many seeds makes up a pack?
Can I send 20 packs of the same seeds?
If I send international, could I send 40 packs of the same seeds in lieu of postage?
What would you consider an "unusual vegetable"
hi Peter. The swap is still open, and yes, if sent internationally you can send 20 extra in lieu of postage, and all can be the same, but no more than 40 of the same kind.
I would think any veggie, flower, herb, etc. seeds would be fine.
I do request that you send a return address label and dmail me a list of the seeds you are sending.
rebeccanne,
I just love your Lobelia tupa, erygnium Jade Frost and rhodochiton... Oh, it is going to be like opening an early Christmas present with all the possible lovelies coming our way... Can hardly wait!
Elsa

Kwolflady,
I just love your adeniums. Are the seeds from your own plants? I would love some, please, if you have any left. If sent some Bird of Paradise seeds, but it is for the bigger plant with the white and purple flowers. I hope to have a few seeds of the orange and purple later in the year. LEt me know if I must save some for you.
Elsa
HI Elsa,
I wish they were mine. Mine are just 1" babies right now.I purchased these from a lady in Thailand,off E-Bay.I always buy in bulk of 100 seeds. As things always seem to happen and I lose my first crop.And this way I have more to fall back on.Just like with any seeds I get,I never plant them all at once.This year was a bad year here for plants starting out. In May we had hail storms every week.I have alot of Irises,and the first hail storm we had shredded them all.I Cried,as they were all just getting ready to bloom. All my flower and trees were shredded.it took all the blooms off my fruit trees too, so we had no fruit. Oh , no wait ! I did have 1 apple and 4 peaches.
I will put some in a bag with your name on it. Hopefully next year the seeds I offer will be from my own plants.I would like to have the white Bird of Paradise,but I think it will get too big for a house plant. Will you save me some of the orange/ purple Bird of Paradise seeds this fall. Thank you !! Karen
Kwolflady, I will send Black Magic dianthus for you. Could you mark one of your Black King Adenium for me? Thanks!
Kilngod, I've got it saved for you with your name on it. Thank you for the Dianthus seeds ! ! ! Karen
Nf2032- I'm sorry but I don't have Flame Thrower. I have Firebird (Echinacea) Karen
Karen in Kansas - Yes, I still have seeds for both plants. I also have some rootstock for the Black Cohosh and a few bulb scales for the Easter Lily. I shall make an envy for inclusion with the swap with your DG name on it with some of each for you.

Lazlo - That would be great. Thank You so much ! ! Karen in KS
Kwolflady, if you haven't sent your seeds in already, can you mark some seeds of Poppy Venus, Adenium - Blue Boy, Adenium - Black- King, Adenium - Ultravoilet, Adenium - Red Dragon 10 seeds for me, please.
I just read the article about crocosmia. I have about 10 varieties and lots of them have seeds now. Tons of seed of the lucifer, but then, who doesn't? I have a few that are quite rare, some yellows and such. Anyhow if anyone wanted some seed, I could send some. Of course they are hybrid so the seed may give you quite a bit of variety. If you were interested I could harvest the seed from the more uncommon ones. They are very easy to grow from seed. Let me know and I will get them in the mail.
