ok blkraven2, twist my arm!
thanks everyone for your onslaught of plants. i tried to tell my husband before that i wasn't addicted. but when he sees what i come home with, he definitely won't believe me anymore!
there is only one problem... i can't be at the round up for the whole time. i have two children under the age of three, and even though my husband is a great husband and father, he simply cannot handle both children at the same time for more than an hour or so (if that!). i will get there in the morning and stay through lunch. i hope that will give me a chance to meet everyone. oh and i will try to bring something for the pot luck too.
i look forward to meeting everyone!

Annette_M, may I have some soapwort?
sapphirestar19 I will bring you a confederate Jasmine but afraid there is no life signs on the night blooming jasmine. I tried to layer root the confederate jasmine so with any luck I will have some rooted. Got you down.
I will be working on going through with a fine tooth comb to get everything final. So please if I miss someone by tomorrow evening (fri) please shoot me a dmail. I don't want to forget anyone.
Becky I don't know how many 1 gal pots I picked up but you will be smiling. There are atleast 100. Got some for Smockette too. shhh she don't know I am even doing it. Going to spend fri and maybe sat night at her house. She is my "Sista"
I can use all pots under 1 gallon in size if anyone has any. I found more gallons than I can dream of using.
I love my family here. I am getting excited.
OOOH Sandi..... it's gonna be like Christmas???..LOL... Thanks girl!! Ol Linda might not know it , but I'm bringing her all those pampas grass things I got by mistake, and potted up for her from ETRU last fall, and I will be sooo glad to give them to her!!

How ever many you feel like digging. I am happy with what ever you bring.
Thank you so much.

lol :o)
Thanks Sandi.. I have you down for the CR's!!
ilovejesus99-Thanks so much! Would you like anything that I have? So sorry about your night blooming jasmine, I read the plantfiles on it and now I have to find some. If I do before the RU, I'll share some. :)
sapphirestar19, I have you down for the soapwart.
You might try Joseph's Nursery, there. They have huge greenhouses, in case you haven't been there yet. They have all kinds of stuff.
I think Maas Nursery has it too. The trick is going to be getting down there.
Got you down for the Lavender Scallops, Sandi!
Does anyone need multiplying onions? They really do multiply quickly.

Dear Friends,
My yellow iris bloomed this morning! I am pretty sure then, that it is not really an iris, but a dietes (also called a south african iris or butterfly iris). Here is a picture of the flower. It also makes a nice grass-like clump about 3 feet high and a couple feet in diameter... at least that's the size at my house. i just divided them and i have a ton, and still only two takers?
I would love one! :-)
Are multiplying onions edible?
ggirl.. me!!! me!!! (waving my hand) I love those!!! but only if you have enough for who ever else wants some
omg - i have a ton of them. how many do you want?
GG - I'm sorry, the butterfly iris are beautiful, but I already have two clumps that I need to divide. And really dreading it. :-(
blkraven - If you have any Lycoris radiata left, I'd like some. I already have a very small patch of them, but they are beautiful in the fall, and I can think of several places to introduce another patch of them...
I WISH I had room for an Alocasia calidora, but I just don't.
I'm gonna take a walk around outside and see if I can squeeze anything else in.
DH dug up a couple of small (not too small) nandinas that have really lacy leaves, and we are thinking of digging up a bulrush (now, where did that come from?) in our screened-in pool area. I like the form, and the spiky "leaves"...but we need to get to a skimmer just past it. Don't know which it is...but here's a photo. The "blooms" are about half way up on the spiky "leaves". Photo following. I am quite sure it would love a boggy area, although mine isn't.

The "flower" up close and personal.
And the ajuga in full bloom. I just love this plant.
I can also offer a native - speedwell, the groundcover. Here's a photo of it just past its prime. It was covered in blue flowers for about a month.
I found a little water oak - about 3 1/2 to 4 feet tall that is way too close to a rose bush. If anyone wants it, we will try to dig it up and pot it up for you... Otherwise, it has to go in the trash.
cee jay..Ill bring you a bag of the red suprise lillies.. no problemo.. if you dig up the bullrush I could use it in my bog area Im working on and Ill take some speed well if you want to get rid of it. unless someon wants it..
G Girl.. Il ltake what ever youd like to share.. thanks!!
To both Beck5711 and blackraven2 - gotcha both
