DJ9'S WINTER ROBIN " INTEREST " PT 3

(Di) Seven Mile, OH(Zone 6b)

Susie, I'll put the Blackberry Lily and 'Lavendar Twist' redbud seeds in an envelope for you.

Gardenseeder63, I don't know if you were addressing to me or not but I'll put some of the toadflax aside for you in an envie. I don't have the 'Cherry Brandy' rudbeckia - I want that one as well.

Fruity, I'll add the Blackberry Lily to your envie as well.

I'm getting so excited!

Carolyn, the earliest I've ever seen snow was Halloween night several years ago near Pittsburg.

Athens, PA

FOTV-

we have had snow here before on Halloween years ago. It is more the exception than anything else.... I am not a snowbunny! Give me hot and humid any day of the week........

Nineveh, NY(Zone 5a)

We had some snow this afternoon. It didn't last long.

Blue Ridge Mtns, VA(Zone 7a)

Remind me next year, Carolyn, and I'll gladly send you some heat and humidity. This year's was awful, started in June and didn't let up til September. My fav time of the year is Spring to early Summer before it feels like I'm in a melting pot out there.

You just gave me goosebumps, Erin. Talk about extremes. That 4-letter "S" word better not show up here til December...lol

OK all you seedies, I'm on a mission to add more White plants. Does anyone have seeds for these or any others you've had success growing? Doesn't matter to me if they're annuals or perennials.

Balloon Flower
Baptisia leucantha
Candytuft
Catananche
Cobaea Scandens
Columbine
Double White Datura
Hibiscus
Lunaria / money plant
Lupine
Primrose
Scabiosa

Surprises would be great. Thank You :)

Nineveh, NY(Zone 5a)

I wouldn't mind if it skipped us all together!

Everett, WA(Zone 8a)

I'm a few days past my "50% frost date" but no frost yet.

It is what Western, maritime Washingtonians call "cold", like 40s at night and nice in the daytime, if it isn't raining.

No white seeds, sorry. Just bought more white Hyacinth bulbs.

Some day I hope to make a white-and-pale blue partial-shade garden in a Goddess theme. Maybe put a plaster Mary statue there.

If I remember right I put some "Cherry Brandy" seeds in the envelope to Susie.
If I didn't I can send some out to who ever wanted some. I think I have a few left.

I think I read the rules wrong so need to drop out I think. I did not realize we were to send seeds directly to you first. I have mine baged and ready but was gonna make the stickers when I saw what everyone else was doing.
Sorry about it but I better drop out at this time so I want slow everyone up.

Barbourville, KY(Zone 7a)

Lavina,
No need to send seeds to Susie first. You are fine.
Some folks did that to make sure people who receive the "Robin" early in flight get some of the seeds they specifically requested in the box. That was completely optional.
The rules posted at the start of the swap are the important ones.
Alana

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

Lavina No You do not send your seeds to me Only if you had special seeds for anyone before you & Still that was optional you can send right to them if you want .

anyway Robin Is ready to fly & I will be going into town later this morning I Will be Posting a New Forum
with the flight Pattern When you see your name coming up on the list Please Post that you are watching .

Off to make the new thread .
