LeBug. Is that your have and want list? If so , just edit, copy and paste it on to the swap List thread and delte it from here. If thats what ya want from Tuink, forget what I said.
Dmailed you LeBug! :)
Starlight, I didn't know that about you... sorry you can't sniff what we sniff out in the garden (sometimes that's a good thing, though, like when I've had a compost delivery or a skunk passing through). One of my best friends had the same lack of a sense of smell, and he said it would probably bother him to lose something like that but he couldn't really miss what he'd never had. LOL
Anyway, I'd love to try those early sweet peas. I'll report back about their fragrance! :-)
LeBug, just as Starlight said... copy your seed list over to the other thread, please, and edit it on the other thread as we go along. You can post here (please do) when you've made additions or significant changes, so people know to go look.
LeBug, you know I couldn't look at your list without requesting something, LOL... May I please have some Salvia regeliana light blue? If your "hardy pink milkweed" is swamp milkweed, Asclepias incarnata, then I would love some of that also please. (see http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/539/)
Meredith, I'll be happy to add Torenia for you. I did collect some seeds this year, just haven't taken a good look to see how many I got out of the little pods, so if anybody else wants some, please speak up. This year's seeds might be separated as to color, if I remembered to label them... These seeds are fine as dust and cream colored, so at first glance it may not seem there's anything in the baggie. Commercial seeds are often sold in pelleted form. I don't try to plant them just 2 or 3 to a little pot; instead, I sow them in a little seed starting tray and separate out the seedlings to pot them up when they have a couple pairs of leaves.
Lea, that red/white bicolor salvia sounds nice, I'd like to try it if ya still got some. The Salvia bug bites me a little harder each year. I'd love some pink and orange moss rose too!
Critter, I'd like to get some more Torenia from you this year. Mine failed miserably this year- my fault, but I have very few seed left from last year.
Tuink, wanted to make sure you saw this post:
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=5781848
LeBug - I'd love to ask for some of your Cardinal Flower and Cassis Yarrow (red) Thanks!
Question for all you experienced piggies.....I think I've asked just about everyone for something....is this a common piggie affliction? :-)
~chele
LOL Chele -- if you were to read some of the posts from last time....
yes, it's common, we are all pigs... some of us who did it last time, and got hundreds of seed packs got... we are really trying hard to restrain ourselves... since we really dont need seeds.... but ya see something yummy -- ya just gotta OINK.
OOOhh! How did I miss a red and white bi-color salvia? Sounds good to me, too, Lea if you have enough. Also, Lea what is your DG name so I can keep it all straight?
Tonya
I beg your pardon, tcs. I prefer to remain in the piggy or piglet camp! (small oink). You may include yourself in the whole hog camp if you wish.
LOL you all are making me laugh! Piggies are just so cute.....but hogs?? well..... Nobody start slinging mud. :-) oink
Critter - can I please add Cardinal Climber Ipomoea sloteri to my list? Thanks from this piglet!
Hahaha Perennial. That funny!!!!! : )
OMG! Is it too late?! Please say it ain't so! Can I still get in on this? I've been so busy with work, church and yard work preparing for fall that I've finally come up for air. LMK and I'll get my list up by tomorrow.
JoAnn
Critter- the everlasting sweet pea grows pretty wildly in an area by my septic system. It's not boggy at all. Just sandy and holds some moisture. Want some?
Cheles- Good to see you again :-) I'll mark you down for the Penstemon 'red rocks'!
Cordeledawg- If nobody's got you yet. I've got plenty of Tithonia!
OK Lea, I sent a dmail, but I'll put it here too. I'm impressed at your list and even more impressed that I'm able to contain my oinking to 2 items. I'd love a pack of your red petunias and if nobody wants to fight me for them I'd like to try the white nymph salvia. I'd be happy to split the pack if anyone else wants some too.
Thank you Critter! I bought some in a hanging basket one year and they were gorgeous but I haven't seen them for sale here since. It will be fun to see if it's something I can grow myself from seed instead of having to buy it. : )
Gypsyrose, yes please I would love to try your perennial sweet pea. There's a great photo of the bloom in PF, but it also says the plant needs boggy conditions... PF notes aren't always correct on things like that, so I figured I'd check with you!
Meredith, I never thought of putting the Cardinal Climber in a hanging basket -- great idea! I grew them up the shepherd's hook that held my hummzinger feeder this summer. The hummingbirds sipped at the flowers as well as at the feeder. :-)
Tonya, Lea=LeBug
La&Lea (I feel like singing...LeaLaLeaLaLeaLa...sorry, lol) Anyhoo, if I could get a few of those white salvias...I'd...squeal like a piggy! I forgot to put white salvia on my want list for the Sky Garden.
Neal
Critter- Gotcha down for Everlasting 'Pink Pearl'. hmm... I'll write a note in PlantFiles and add another picture, I didn't realize it said that. That's not what I remember it saying when I bought the seeds. With alot of sand in my yard, It doesn't have a chance of getting boggy unless the water table were to rise significantly :-)
Oink...Oink...
Danita May I have any blue basil, if you have enough?
Tuinkabouter May I have Agastache "Pink pop"?
LeBug May I try Hardy Pink Milkweed, Moonvine, and Cardinal Flower?
Oink...Oink...
I will be slowly building my list as I work on cleaning all my seeds. Look for my start of my list on the other thread.
I love this swap! What a great idea, Starlight!

RatherB

Lala_Jane

critterologist
Could I have one of each of these if you have enough?
Achillea, white heirloom

Thanks, Cindy
Robynznest:
I have Heirloom tomato "Cherokee Purple" if you would like one...I am still building my list, but I saw your want list...
RatherB
Robynznest:
Can I request Coreopsis Major from your list:
I may have some columbine for you, if you like...
RatherB
Just updated with a few things. Look for " * " http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=5785279
Marking new additions with an asterisk is a great idea, Danita!
Mamawk, I'll make a note the next time I edit my list (I think I'm at my limit). There's basically a wait-list on the Torenia until I know how much seed I have from this year... so I'll keep adding names, and I'll fill requests if I can. I get lots of volunteers of the white achilea, which I got from a DGer's hundred year old house/garden, so it would probably do well with winter sowing. I haven't tried collecting seeds from it before, but I did get what I think are seeds (some chaff, too), so LMK how they work out... If they don't work out, we'll talk plant trade, LOL.
Robynznest
Would one of each of these if you have any left please
Nastutium Empress of India
Scabiosa atropurpurea
MG Sunrise Serenade
Yarrow Summer Pastels
Thanks
Critter it sounds good to me.
I've been cleaning out my seeds basket, basically getting everything organized for this swap
