This one will be quick moving as their isn't a large amount of time to sign up. I am now taking names, addresses and list of your haves/wants.
Please note that if you list rare or expensive plants you most likely will not receive them. Please do not expect to. I will try to match everyone up with at least one plant on their list. However sometimes this is not possible, so please be open to new ideas as well.
****If you wish to join please dmail me your name, addy, list of what you have to swap and what you would like to receive from the swap. - to expedite signups, please included all information on one dmail, I will then use that dmail to send your buddy. This is very important on make this go faster, everything this way is one dmail. I will try to make sure you have a new buddy, this was something I didn't do until late last year however will try to accommodate this feature earlier.
Rules are listed below.
1. Do not sign up if you only want free plants, this is a swap not a give away.
2. Minimum number of cuttings/plugs/starts/plants is 4, however these should be different plants, not 4 of the same (the smaller number will allow some newbies to join as well) - you may send extras, small gifts if you want, this is completely optional and not a requirement. If you do send extra, please do not be upset if you don't receive extra in return from your buddy.
3. Sign ups will runs until July 15th.
4. Mail by date is July 25th or you can mail sooner if you want to. Just make sure ok with your buddy.
5. Post to forum when you pkg is mailed and when you receive.
6. If you have not sent a pkg from a previous swap, I will hold your info until that swap is complete before adding to the list.
You may sign up more than once if you so wish, it it get to big fo rme to handle I reserve the right to stop this at any time. I do include my disabled sister in the swaps, if anyone has a probelm with this as she is not a member I will remove her. I do usually take any who sign up late if I can. This way to include all I can in these swaps.
Please be open to the same old common plants, you can always use then in trading, this way it allows some newbies to be involved.
CLEAR AS MUD I HOPE!!! Dmail me any questions, comments, suggestions or concerns. I also do my best to make sure everyone gets a box even I or another generous donor has to make the box to send.
Come Join us.

I'm back with pictures, just look at the nice selection of Wandering Jews! I've been wanting some ever since I got back into houseplants this past winter. I've never seen the small green furry one before, it's great! And the big purple one too!! Then there are the two I'm familiar with and wanted. Begonias are one of my favorites too! Guess I just love everything :)))) And the fact that most of them were already rooted were a big plus for me, beginner that I am.....Thanks again Bluepoppy!
~Brenda

Thank you again Lou.
Susan
Brenda,
I just wanted to let you know that i received my plants yesterday and OMG..thank you so much..i loved them all...the pink panther is just gorgeous along with the pink hoya's. I love them all and will plant them..it's late tonight and i wanna plant them up and take pics. Just wanted to let you know they arrived safely and i love everything so much.
And my hubby said he loved that pink hoya and he does not even love plants....but that one was so pretty to him. So thanks ;)
Char
Char I'm so glad they arrived safe and not toasted!! It's been hot, even here in Idaho, and I was concerned. I put in all the "pink" I could and I know they will have a good home!!
Enjoy, ~Brenda
Mine are shipped... Wow never took me so long to ship something..LOL
Susan
Here are the pics of mine...I just love them all...I have a creeping charlie just like that one, but mine does not look half as good as this one...i just love it so much and the pink panther one has got to be one of my new favorites, it's the one is the front in the light green pot...and the hoya's OMG i cant say enough about them.. I just love them all... I also got a whole gallon size baggie full of philo's cuttings, however i had some like it so i potted them up and gave them to my friend who just bought a new house....she just loved it, and it is now hanging in her living room with lots of light.
Brenda, Thanks so much for all the wonderful plants you sent...I love each one of them.
Char
ok so i forgot the pic...LOL here it is....
I love your pots Char, the plants all look great in them! The pink panther has a bud on it, hope it blooms quickly for you, it's a hot pink bloom with a yellow throat, really a pretty one!
~Brenda
I have not yet received a package. It looks like everyone shipped their's, so there may have been a problem with the deliver. Just thought I'd let somebody know their package did not reach it's destination yet. Lou
I'm still waiting on mine to arrive yet too.Amy/Raingazer did let me know it would be a little late tho.
I mailed yours late dispatcher. It went out last Thursday, you should receive today.
I am sorry for my lack of being online lately. I will check the list today to see who has and hasn't received.
Also Cedarnest is going to host the swap for August. Thanks Cedarnest
Sorry again, life has just overwhemed me as of late.
I received my lovely box.
cedarnest, I've got your box ready to go out today. Since it's so late, I put some extra goodies in there for you. :o) I'll send you the DC number once I've been to the post office. Thanks for being patient and understanding with me with all I've got going on. :o)
