Dear All,
I think the aussie swapping is great but what about the vegies???
Most of my seed comes from Seed savers Network and I run Menai High School seed group with my ag students ( when i'm not on maternity leave)
I have lots of mustard ; leaves are peppery and great in salad and seeds used in cooking
rocket; quick growing peppery salad green
carrot; all season, easy to grow, and save seed from. By the way carrot flowers bring beneficial preditor insects
radish; should be china rose but it may by one that crossed because it was grown at the school and i think other people put in radish as well. however, i have grown it and its an ok radish, which i mainly grow to mark other seed anyway.
Greenshaft pea; a climbing pea
Red barlotti bean
I you want any advise on saving seed, hand pollinating cucubits etc let me know
Aussie trades for NSW, QLD, VIC, NT, ACT, TAS
G'day all!
Well apparently its been the coldest, wettest Winter since the 1990's.... so the clay in my backyard is sticky and hard to deal with!!!
Does anyone have or know anyone else that has Heuchera's.... and NO not Palace purple, or Bressingham, or Amethyst Mist.
Am South facing, trying to do a massed display, with limited flowers as the boy gets heyfever....very badly.... ( I haven't told him about the Bouvardia's)!!!!! lol
So if you have some rhizomes, plants....or if you know someone o.s. that can do seeds or plants....(I have talked to A.Q.I.S.) I can import from U.K and U.S.A. but that is all....
Have a great time in the Garden!!!

Hi All :)
I have some Lilium’s that are about to drop seed.
If anyone wants to try and grow them, you just pay postage and ill send them to you.
There is a sunset one that was pictured a few months ago- mostly red with orange.
Trumpet regal type lily
And pixels- white with purple spots.
I also saved seeds last year from, pixels and trumpet lily but forgot to label them and they can be a mixed lot.
I know g_whizz grows lilies; he gets first dibs if he wants them
Also the main bulbs and stems should start to die down in the next few months, and I am guessing there is going to be heaps of baby bulbs or pups.
If anyone is interested in them just ask.
Just collected end of season:
Poppy seed: red with black centre, grew 1m tall short flower season
California poppy seed orange: 30cm plants flowers continually for a few months
Cayenne chilli seed: good for soups and stews and chilli con carn. Normal mild heat- won’t explode your head off.
Chain of hearts seed: never grown seed before it’s to easy just to break of a pieces of the plant and stick it in a new pot.
String of beads seed: never grown seed before, easier to grow cuttings.
AND Heaps of past years tomatoes seed that I didn’t plant out this year.
Ox heart – pink?
Yellow pear: Always a good producer – low acid and sweet
Roma: slow producer few fruit
Heritage striped: boring plants most you will get is 5 fruit per plant
Random Tomato Mix: Greens, blackish, reds, large and small fruits.
Hi Everyone,
I now have some more Mandevilla Laxa Seeds ( white wonderfully perfumed climber of moderate vitality- easily controlled down south) if anyone is interested in them.
Looking for seeds of edible perennials but swapping not essential.PM me of you want some. Oh and I desperately want waterlilies - any colour would be good- have a big pond to fill.
Thanks from Sue

Hi, I am a new backyard gardener. Bought packets of seeds, and I realize that I’ll probably only use say, 10 out of the 500 seeds in the packet! So what I have for trade are:
From commercial bought: wild rocket, carrot, broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprout, red and gold onions, beetroot, coriander, jalapeno pepeprs
From my uncle’s garden (he is a great experienced gardener): cherry tomatoes, basil
I would like plants or seeds: strawberries, blueberries, herb plants (rosemary, sage, bay, parsley, etc). If you have any other plants/seeds that are not in my have-list, I’m open to them as well.
I stay in North-East Melbourne. Greensborough to be exact.
Hi All. I've been looking for seeds/seedlings for Coneflowers other than purple. The ones that have really taken my fancy are the variety "Warm Summer". Are they available in Australia? Does anyone know where from please?
Hi, anyone from Aust that has trades, would you please send me a private message and let me know what you have to offer. Also tell me what you maybe looking for as well, please.
Thx,
Degarotty

Hi Everyone, I have lots of succulent cuttings I can take, everything from aloes to zygos, also have zonal pelargoniums, crimson rosebud and scarlet rosebud, Bel Gold and a couple of unknown names, scented pelargoniums, I have peppermint, Mabel Grey and nutmeg, Irises, so far only Spiced Custard is out , but will sort out names when the others flower. (Can take pics)
I am interested in getting more aloes and zygoes, gasterias, haworthias, albucas, unusual kalanchoes, sanseverias, and pretty much any other succulent that is differrent. Also looking for Ivy Geraniums (Pelargonium Peltatum), I had a lovely collection but lost them all when I moved. More Irises would be good too. Please and thankyou.
Cheers C.
hi!!!!
i am interested to make a international garden.and i do not the procedure.how can i make it?i like your programs.
Go man Go!
jamilurrahman, to make an international garden, you will need to reseacrh where certain plants come from, and then try to make the growing conditions the same. If your country is hot and humid/wet, most of the time, try using tropical plants, as plants from dry climates will often rot and not perform well. Google would be an ideal place to start your research. Good luck.
I love to do gardening but from last 3 months I am unable to keep focus on garden as I am pregnant and working in garden wearing maternity dresses is quite uncomfortable.

Glad you love Gardening , Sofia....Im not one for maternity dresses/ and I don't think I'll ever breastfeed..I am a big sucker though, and I know its hard to do things over a 'robust' belly..But it doesn't stop me growing 1st class liliums...............No chatter, Sue.. Sorry
I would like to get some Cuban lily bulbs, if anyone has any. I'm at Glenorchy and am happy to buy them from you or trade, you can come and have a browse in my garden as we only bought the house in Sept so not sure what is here.
Trade Hoya cuttings for those I don't have. Anyone interested. I have epiphyllum cuttings and purple brugmansia plants.
smell rose to me :)
