sherman, It was me that wanted Autumn Joy seeds. Do you still have some? Cam

Crit, you left me off. You were going to send me small zinnias and scarlet runner beans. Thanks, Cam

Oops, Crit. My mistake. It was Sherman I was thinking of. Cam

DJ, When you re-copied the route, you forgot that LA is next door to Texas so I should mail to her and she would mail to MS which is East of her. Thanks. Cam

Steadycam, I can provide you with perrenial sweet pea seeds.

I would like some seeds of the following:

Ageratum houstonianum
okra, emerald
lemon cucumber
snowbird, snow pea
Sunflower, evening sun

MARY

I will set them aside for you. I would like some Lemon Grass seed if you still have some. Cam

OK steadycam, I will reserve some Lemon Grass seed for you.

MARY

Merry-oh, oh, me waving and jumping up and down, if you have any sweet peas left may i have some? who am i kiding, i am too old to jump up and down, so, just me waving.

thanks

steady-have the sedum, will add to your env.

Karen, I will include Perrenial Sweet Peas in your envy

Lathyrus latifolius 'White Pearl' everlasting sweet pea

MARY

thank you. i think i am going back to my childhood, wanting to plant all the things i had as a child, that i remember smelling so good !

Karen ~ Perennial sweet peas have no fragrance. I will be happy to send you some ones that do have fragrance. You just save a few seeds of the best flowers and pick them often beforehand and you will get a long flowering period. If you grow a perennial sweet pea, which properly should be called perennial pea or perennial ornamental pea, they have deep tap roots. In just the right climate they can get out of hand. Would you like a variety of colors? The annuals have fragrance and many colors, the perennial pea has deep pink, medium pink, light pink and white.

I have been trying to dig out the perennial pea out of one of my square foot gardens for a couple of years now, but will probably just let it flower this year, since there is no easy way to remove it, other than herbicide, which I do not use, or to dig out completely after completely emptying the bed and digging down a few feet. Still, if all the root is not all out, it re-appears like mint. (At least mint is edible!)

Now, of course, after saying all that, I planted some white perennial pea aginst the fence, and so far not much result, but possibly it is because DH weed-whacks that area, since it is a bit weedy come late spring. The white pea is desireable in certain circumstances, but you have to know its drawbacks as well, but especially if you are looking for fragrance, as it does not have any.

If there is a seed that you are wanting, please put it on your want list and if I have it, I will share it. If you see something on this list, please let me know and put it on this thread to let others know that you already asked for it, since I do not have so many trades of each type of seed. I will try and check in at least once a day so I can update this list to let you know what is still available.

Evelyn, I would like to try your purple podded bush beans.
You will have to send them to me as I am not in this round of seed exchange.
Address is in Daves or I can send it to you?
Just let me know, ok?

Maxine

Interested to see what else you have of veggie seeds.

also Cam wrote
DJ, When you re-copied the route, you forgot that LA is next door to Texas so I should mail to her and she would mail to MS which is East of her.

I will try to change it today if others agree

sorry i'm out of it again headthrobs are back , so please keep chatty & I will check back when i can .
susie

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had moon and stars watermelon? or any other watermelons? I have suger baby but wanted to try something different this year. thanks

Susie ~ I hope that you feel better soon. The computer screen is probably not good for your headache. I will hold good thoughts for you.

I got two plants today in the mail I think they are lilies and the thing is that I don't know who the person is that sent it. It is from Mary in NC. It was a surprise to me I did not know that I was getting the plants. I have potted up.

My Desk Top computer keep the Can thank goodness I have a backup Laptop Computer.

It is very cold here and the wind is blowing hard.

Jennifer

Our only mary in our group that i can think of is from PA. for any of you that are following the Robin That Is In Flight Now it is at KOBWEBZ & I MADE A NEW THREAD

http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1149369/

hope you all are have better weather it is very cold up this way & more snow moving in by this weekend.

I Recieved My GARDEN GATE BOOKS From EVELYN & I Cannot leave them alone since i opened then Yesterday :)
I'm Marking so many pages as to projects i want to try. & The looking at pictures is better then reading :) .
well just finished super & I have to go put my critters in the barn so you all have a great evening .

I'll have more wants to add maybe tomorrow :) HEHE TY EVELYN.
susie

Susie ~ When does this robin start? I hope to finish putting up my list tomorrow. I want to be sure to get my seeds repackaged as I do not have any clear plastic bags, just paper ones.

Wow Evelyn, do you ever have a bunch of seeds!
Would like the following, please?
1-[1] package of each of the lettuce. I am a lettuce nut as I have to grow it, as I have acid reflux and a hiatial [spelling] hernia.
2-black beauty zucchini
3-golden zucchini

I will gladly pay you postage for these seeds. Did you quit gardening? I am planning on putting in more as my son wants to share garden and work to produce it. He lives on extremely poor sand, almost what we consider blow sand. Doesn't raise much of any thing except those pesky weeds.

Maxine

Evelyn as soon as the Robin that is going around right now gets back here I will remove seeds that others have shared with me then add ones I Have for you all then it will go back in the air we are hopeing about 1St Part of march .

I know it sounds a ways off & Your growing season is differ but i hope you will still find some great seeds & Be able to get them in the ground in time :)

well work to get done around here this morning . so you all have a great day .

susie

evelyn-thanks for the heads up on the sweet peas, did not know that. would still like to try a few if that is ok with you.
also, if no has asked for the Centuraea dealbata would love to have that. thanks

Evelyn, If you have enough, I would like some Sugar baby watermelon, a purple or red basil and the banana legs tomato.

Susie, I have two kinds of Brug seeds. One is yellow and the other I forgot to label. I will put some aside for you if you wish. Cam

sure i would love to try them :))) time to shut down back in the morning .

susie

Evelyn ... I am only hoping to have one Bananna Legs tomatoe seed germinate .... so split those seeds ... if I fail to have success with what you send, then it was not to be.

MARY

Steadycam-are crimson sweet melons round with stripes? if so my neighbor grew them last year. I think you have to have a little luck with the weather but it is posible.I am in zone 5. the suger baby did great last year for me. I looked up the days to maturity on the melons- suger baby - 80-85 days, crimson sweet - 85 days, moon and stars - 82-95 days.
I usully just let the melons grow in with my other plants- kind of my version of intercroping. if I can get a couple seeds of each varity I might try one plant of each and see what happens. thanks.

ok i Made the changes I now need to know witch one is closer to Jen Is it Merrymath or carolyn ???
Looks as if The robin is costing less Only when it dose not Have far to fly.
snow day again :) so i have another 6 jugs to fill but i have run out of soil so i need to make a trip to town
Hope you all are haven a safe & Fun weekend .

Evelyn, I believe the list contains only the 1st ten recipients of the 2nd Robin.

The Robin has 15 players I was just showing the changes in the flight as others has suggested to me .

Jen & Eve thank you & I would do that if i was up to it but untill my doc calls to change my dose of coumadine up or down I cannot think well with these head throbs .

this is why i ask the gals to tell me for they live out in that area sorry for cheating but its all i can do right now to keep meals fixed & Tring to get the family around for daddy witch I Have passed it over to my sisters to do.

I'm really hoping for my doc to call me today but i think that is just a dream :(
if no change is needed we will leave as is :)
thank you all & I do hope to be back to normal soon.
susie

Susie, I checked with USPS. The distances from Jen to either Carolyn or myself, are within the same range. At most there is a 15 mile difference (but not as the crow flies). Or should I have said ...as the robin flies?

or flower seed viability table go to www.hillgardens.com/seed_longevity.htm you have to scroll down a wee bit to get to the flowers,
