Seed Have & Want Lists

Jamaica Plain, MA(Zone 6a)

Please have a look at my wants and haves. I don't have much room left in my garden, so I'm pretty fussy about what I want - mostly part-shade to shade perennials. Please don't ask me to send for postage, as whatever I don't trade will be first offered in the Fall Frenzy Piggy Seed Swap this fall.

Please send me a d-mail if interested in trading.

Seeds wanted:

Any bicolor, white, pink, or true blue aconitums (no purples please)
Aconitum heterophyllum
Actaea simplex (formerly cimicifuga (sp?)) “Hillside black beauty” or similar
Aquilegias:
desertorum
flabellata or flabellata var. pumila
Origami rose & white
Arisaema -any
Asclepias purpurascens
Asclepias sullivantii
Delphinium grandiflorum “summer blues” (no other delphs please)
Dicentra “burning hearts”
Filipendula purpurea
Persicaria “red dragon” + other dragons
Persicaria nepalensis

Or offer seeds of anything else on my want list or interesting shade perennials that I don't have.
