Something else I have a lot of is Swedish Ivy. Kind of don't see that
much any more. It is such a pretty plant! Shiny leaves....easy care...
I am always taking cuttings and starting small pots of it. It is sooo easy!
The trick is to put 3 cuttings in each finger-hole. Then you have a bushy plant.
4" pot---2 holes
6" pot---5 holes
8" pot--7 holes
10" pot--11 holes

It is not hard to send cuttings through the mail. Just that they would be boxed.
Should get to you in a couple of days.

John does not have to drive all the way up here--that is a long trip!
The lilies you want to give us--would they hold until the Swap?

I know what I will do.....I will start a bunch of 4" pots of the Swedish Ivy
for you. That way, they will be a bit ahead...and nicely growing for you to sell.
I have 2 older HB's of it that I really do not want to keep.
Need to trip all those--will make a lot of pots....

Would you prefer I did 6" pots for you? Get more money?
How much can you get for a nice 6" potted plant? 4" ??

Hitting the sack--I have to get up at 4AM tomorrow...
Stay well--you two!
