I'll bring Willis Tx Garden some LA Iris and may have some for others.

Will bring cutting of vitex. Someone wanted a cutting of the pink one a while back, and I'll bring one for him (or her). The rest will be Montrose Blue.

May bring some rose cutting for the lady who ask for them (sorry, already your name's slipped my mind, but I'll make a note.)

It's charlenesplants who wants the rose cuttings, and you'll get them, Mother Nature willing.

And my want from anyone is the Gladiolus byzantinus, please.

Welcome chellflower, and my I have one of your Butterfly Bush 'Black Night'? I have EE and Bananas.
You may want to come out to our place and load up. As most people who have been here will tell you, we are loose with our plants and have quiet the collection.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

Welcome chellflower I am looking forward to meeting you and the family
Y'all will have a great time meeting everyone and trading plants

I don't have much for trades yet but could I ask for a blackberry lily pup and a butterfly bush

Tyler, TX(Zone 8b)

Ken, you surely may! I'd love to visit y'all and see your gardens.....if I can ever get away from work long enough, LOL.

Phyllis...howdy neighbor! I have them set aside with your name on them :)

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

Hi Chellflower! I'm close too as I live in Frankston. I would love to have a butterfly bush please. Be sure and look at my list for something you'd like.

Tyler, TX(Zone 8b)

Darkmoondreamer....Hi, you now have a butterfly bush :)


I still have one butterfly bush left if anyone is interested......

Garland, TX(Zone 8a)

Trishann... could I get you to bring me one of your windchimes?

I am still not sure what I will have with me to trade. I should have one of the little red oak saplings that I promised you last year, though. I will also have some coleus, although at this point I can't say which ones. And one thing I know survived is some of the little blue agastache seedlings.

Garland, TX(Zone 8a)

Okay, here is what I know I can bring so far. I will have to look around in a few days and see what survived the most recent snow.

Haves:
Native echinacea (purple coneflowers) (Mindy, Josephine, Charlene for Dave & Trish's children, Sheila)
Agastache seedlings, Honey Bee Blue (have 7-8) (Ken, Charlene for Dave & Trish's children)
Blue toad lilies, 3-4 divisions (chellflower, Charlene, Ken, Karen, Lee)
Native columbine seedlings (yellow) GONE (Charlene, kenboy, Lee)
NOID mixed columbine seedlings (Phyllis)
some coleus varieties, not sure what yet
a variety of rooted begonias, houseplants - can do a couple of rootings of each (chellflower)
blue butterfly bush, sp. - have 1 seedling but can easily root more (Karen, Mindy)
a white sedum-type that looks just like a ghost plant--can't think of the name right now (can do 3-4)

water plants: (Karen)
lemon bacopa, although speak now if you want this one because I may be getting rid of it
creeping primrose (don't recommend this one; it has never bloomed for me)

Promised last year and will bring:
Cerise Queen yarrow (eyes)
Hosta June (Maggie)
Texas red oak sapling (Trishann)
coneflowers (Josephine)
Hot Lips salvia (Sylvia)
anything else I find out there that survived and has a name on it

Wants:
gingers (any except butterfly)(Kenboy)
brugs (preferably pink, but any except Dr Seuss or versicolor peach) (Charlene, Kenboy)
passifloras (Lee)
Cashmere Bouquet (Lee)
irises if I don't already have one from you
named sedums (have Autumn Joy)
Texas betony

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Does anyone have a Saucer Magnolia or a Barbados Cherry?

Tyler, TX(Zone 8b)

Hi pbtxlady,

Could I please have one of your blue toad lillies and some begonias?!???
Chell

Garland, TX(Zone 8a)

Sure, Chell. You do realize that these begonias are angel-wings, right? Houseplants, not for hanging baskets. I'll put you down. :)

Buffalo, TX(Zone 8b)

Pattie, how about a pink brug for columbine and toad flower?
Charlene

Tyler, TX(Zone 8b)

pbtxlady....great! Angel wing (and rex) are my fave begonias---Thanks!
Chell

Big Sandy, TX(Zone 8a)

pbtxlady, I would like some of your Blue Toad Llly, Native columbine seedlings and some Agastache seedlings, Honey Bee Blue if this is OK, I am sure we can find something you would like. I have Gingers but I do not know if I have given you some before, also have Brugs and Cashmere Bouquet if your talking about Clerodendrum.

Willis, TX(Zone 8b)

Pattie....if you have enough yellow columbine seedlings...I'd like one please
I'll have a Cashmere Bouquet Hydrangea and Pass. lutea (Yellow Passionflower) for you!

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

pbtxlady I would love to have some of your water plants, they are on my want list :) Also a blue toad lily and a blue butterfly bush seedling. Please check my list.

Garland, TX(Zone 8a)

k, I think I got everyone down. Please check my list to be sure.

Ken, we had arranged a trade last fall (ginger for hosta) but then neither of us made it to the Arlington RU. Maggie said she still wants the hosta, so that's on my list to bring. If you still have gingers, I would love to add some to my teeny collection. If you don't, I'm very greedy for brugs. I don't need yellow, but anything else would be great. Do you still have that pretty Milk & Honey?

Karen, how about if I just bring you whatever water plants I find out there? I have a couple of new ones that look like fast growers and should be divisible by May. I haven't gotten around to cleaning up my pond yet this year, so I don't know what all I'll have. Not sure my EE's survived the winter. But I'm pretty sure I'll have blue pickerel, and may have a water lily ready to divide. (Ick--not a fun job!)

Pattie

Big Sandy, TX(Zone 8a)

Pattie, I have lots of Gingers in a few named species. I have given so many out that I did not want to give you one that you already have. I got a lot of new ones last year but they may of not gotten settled in as good as was needed for such a cold Winter. I will just have to wait to see what comes up. I asked for several plants so I will fix you up with Gingers and Brugs.

Garland, TX(Zone 8a)

Ken, the only gingers I have are Tahitian Flame (which I'm not sure survived), my butterfly ginger, and one I ordered in Mamajack's coop (can't think of the name). So, any you can spare would be very appreciated. Same with the brugs. Thanks. :)

Big Sandy, TX(Zone 8a)

I have over a hundred Gingers and 50 brugs I think I can fix you up.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

Hey Ken when should my brugs be showing signs of life? none of them are showing any signs of life yet LOL

HELP......I went out today and took some picture of things coming up that I think are plans worth keeping and there are several of them throughout the terrace so if anyone cares to take a look and tell me what they are then I can dig some up and pot for those wanting some.
I'm gonna make wood markers this year so I never forget again or at least get them learned LOL

BUMP

Big Sandy, TX(Zone 8a)

Not a one of my Brugs are up, so I don't know what to do.

(Becky) Colmesneil, TX(Zone 8b)

My brugs are up maybe 4" and i am about 2 hours south of you guys. Some haven't shown anything yet, but at least some are

Buffalo, TX(Zone 8b)

I have one brug showing a tiny little shoot. I do hope the others are still dozing and will soon awaken. If not, I have new starts from cuttings and I'll just have to start again. I hope not!
Charlene
