I am looking for liatris plants or bulbs for my garden. I have redbud seeds to trade, they have been stratified and are ready to grow. Redbuds are very hardy, grown in Michigan so they will take the cold or I will pay postage
Liatris plants or bulbs
Annabelle, do you want them now or next spring?? I have the purple and the white one.
Mike
Mike, I would like to have some of your Liatris-both colors. I can pay for postage, or I have Gladiolus I can trade. They are winter hardy for me. They survived the cold winter we had 2013/2014. I am sure they are okay from this winter also. I can go look to see if they are up yet.
They are burgundy. I may have the name somewhere, and I think I have some pictures.
Or, heck, I may have some other kind of perennial you may be interested in.
Birder17 we can surely do a trade. Just D-mail me on what you have in the extra dept. Glads could be one of my choice for sure.
I have Platycodon grandiflorus "Mariesii" Looks just like this one.
I also have Kniphofia. I don't know the name. There's a picture of mine in "Plant of the Year in Your Garden" in Perennials dated February 25th in birder17 post.
And the Gladiolus.
Would you like any of these?
Birder17, I just got a chance to check out the plants. I would definitely go with the Kniphofia. How tall does it get? It look very tall in your picture. Regardless of the height that's the one I want.
Okay on the Kniphofia!. When it's in bloom, it's abut 3 to 3 1/2 feet tall. Otherwise, it clumps and it's about 2 feet tall.
Give me some time to get it to you.
My husband just had hip surgery so I stay busy taking care of him. He's doing well.
I will get the Kniphofia to you. Also, since I'm sending the Kniphofia, would you like some of the burgundy Gladiolus bulbs also?
Birder, since you are in a giving mood my answer is yes. I will make sure the colors are separated and marked. I am not in any rush. It is still cold around here. You can send them when you get a chance. I will d-mail you my address this weekend. Mike
Okay.
Mike, I haven't forgotten you. I have been waiting on the Glads to come up. I finally pulled away the mulch and I see sprouts!
So, within two weeks, I should be able to send both the Glads and the Kniphofia.
I will let you know when I mail them.
