I just mailed the seeds I have that need to go into the Robin before it get's to me. I hope I did not leave anything out. I went through the threads over coffee this morning and tried to pick out what I needed to send.
Thanks for hosting this Susie. Now I can just sit back and wait for it to make it's way to me.
Alana

Susie, good point on the picture of the Butterfly Milkweed. I'm posting a picture of what I have. I'm not sure which Maxine was interested in.

I put a few Asclepias tuberosa seeds in an envelope for Maxine. That is what your photo appears to be, diamond.

I am going to go check my perennial sunflowers and see if the seeds are ready to harvest when I get back from my daughters pre-k class wonderful wednesday! lol.


Erin

ALANA You Can sit back with LAZLO :) He also send a very nice assorment for everyone to share . I will keep my eyes open for Them

also want to remind everyone this if your new to this type of Robin # 1 GUIDELINE That ConCerns Me the Most IS that YOU STAY IN TOUCH AT Lease Post ONCE A WEEK to let us know you are watching & If your name is Up then let us know you are waiting for the robin to land .

If your computor goes down & you cannot post PLEASE Call me I Will post for you. My PHONE # Will be in the robin .

I Can tell you all who is ON 1st For this reason Since My printer is out of commission as i am ,
RICKCORY Has offered to print up all the info that will be in the box with his LAZZER Printer .
& Also he wanted a few of my cannas so He offered to be 1st & last on the list .

I'm Hopping this is ok with you all this way he will get his cannas & move the Robin to a smaller Box
for less postage for the rest of you.

not easy to type laying down so will sign off but if anyone has any questions or thought you can dmail me
or post , i have an doc apt at 1:30 pm but will get to you as soon as i return .
thank you & I know your going to enjoy this one .

Thanks for thinking of me, poisondartfrog. That is exactly the plant that I am looking for. Love that orange color and it should attract the Monarchs.
Are they hard to start from seed?

Another plant that I am looking for seed from is "lychnis X haageana" Orange coloration.

Maxine

MAXINE I ALSO LIKE THAT PLANT & also this one .

OR YOU CAN GET ON THE LIST FOR THE ""FEB"" ROBIN

Susie, will try and get package of individual trades to you in todays mail. I hope!!

Maxine

Me too! but anyone who requested the Cokcscomb may have to get individual mailings. I have not been able t shake any seeds off yet.

We don't have to send out the Robin till the 3rd of NOV so you have time .
ANITA . I picked one of my red cocks comb & has it in a glass of water in the house & one day i saw all these black little seeds all over the table :)
& in the vase of water :) you can always save till the Feb Robin :)

I Have many seeds also that will not be ready for this robin well they are not dried out yet & I do not want any moldy seeds in the robin.

Also I need to let you know that some of my seeds will proble have chaff
for i cannot stand up to clean them they are dry but i just cannot get all the chaffs out of the seeds . done my best .

well i have some papers to fill out & Get sent in you all have a great day.
susie

whoo hooo im excieted!! ty all for such a nice welcome.i have some crocus bulbs ill put in too,if thats ok

this is just for Seed for they are going to weigh enough . but if the person after you want them that is fine to send .

Just wanted to let you all know I updated my wish list with more that I Have up to share so speak up if there is anything there you want .
Post over there on that thread .


will keep watch .
susie

thats fine with me =). I'll take them! lol


Erin

Does anyone have the Allium? I have been eyeballing the bulbs trying to justify buying them. LoL Does anyone have any experience growing them from seed? The Allium (ornamental onion I think) is supposed to keep the moles away. I heard Castor Bean plants do the same.

Does anyone have peppermint seeds?

MARY

I need something to keep the moles and voles away. I will have to look in to allium!

I have not tried to grow allium from seed, however I do have both the allium flavum and the allium pulchellum seeds. Not sure if you can access my journal....http://davesgarden.com/tools/journal/viewbycat.php?cat=81254. Flavum and Pulchellum are the first two..... you are both welcome to the pulchellum and flavum seed.

Thanks Caroyn I have falling in love with the Allium ampeloprasum (Spanish Allium). I'm going to try those in the front yard and the Castor Bean plants in the back yard to see if I can keep the moles and chipmunks away.

Has anyone tried to grow Allium from seed before? I don't grow any now, but it would be fun to try. I wonder how long it takes to get a blooming sized bulb from seed?

Linda

Linda,

I do not think they bloom the first year. From the information I read for Allium hardy to zone 5, they will be best winter sown. They need a stratification period.

GM ALL
Just wanted to say I Have ALLIUM MT Everest SEEDS Not allot but will share a few to anyone who wants.
all my post from last evening went out to cyber space I guess .
sorry for that anyway .

Guess My INR Is getting back to the normal so i hope that I Can soon get back to normal :)

will check back in later you all have a great day .
susie

Maxine, I labelled some Ace tomato seeds for you, and I'll be receiiving some "Tommy Toe" cherry tomatoes soon, from Holland.

Carolyn, I found some blue "Crystal Palce" Lobelia and labelled some for you.

Mary, I checked again and have VERY few orange Butterfly Weed seeds left, but there's 8-9 seeds in your envelope.

The mailing labels are all printed up, and a very nice secretary here showed me how to find pre-programmed Avery label templates in MS Word! Of course, that was AFTER I dislocated my shoulder from patting myself on the back for doing the same thing manually by adjusting margins and column and row sizes in a "table".

In MS Word 2003, the trick is:

position your cursor inside a table of addresses to print
load labels into the Bypass tray
Select from the menu:
Tools
Letters & Mailings
Envelopes & Labels
"Labels" tab
Options
Label Products: Avery Standard
Product Number: 5160
select how many rows and columns
hit "Print".

Now I know the easy way!

Corey

OK I Have been ask to MAKE A change in the flight pattern & It is DMTOM wanted to trade places with TXAGGIEGAL . so that has been done .

Say, would anyone want a bunch of sticky labels pre-printed with their home address? Now that I know how, and have a bunch of labels that Work was going to throw away, it would be easy to print 10 of each. The laser-printer means they won't run in the rain as ink-jet does. These labels are almost 1" x 2.5".

Corey

Corey, I would take some.

Maxine

Sure, sounds good Corey! Thanks. =)
