Ken do you have any extra EE? it seems I lost that huge leaf one you gave me this winter as there are no signs of it coming up

Big Sandy, TX(Zone 8a)

Mibus2, yes I do have some but I lost quiet a few and most are slow coming up, I will see what I can do. I have one of the huge Alocasias but it is small. That sounds stuped but it is early and I am still asleep.

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

LOl well wake up boy I've been up since 4 am and am at work now LOL

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

I will be happy to supply everyone with some EEs. Just need to get the Arl RU behind me and I will post my haves.

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

without looking thru the whole thread does anyone have any butterfly plants/bushes for trade?
I'm looking or one or two if possible

Buffalo, TX(Zone 8b)

Josephine,
You can remove the aster since you put it on the Arlington thread that you were bringing it there. I am bringing the salvia coccinea to Arlington also.

I would like a trade of the brazos pen and of the pink dessert willow.
I will bring you a purple cone flower and a mealy blue sage if that is okay.
Charlene

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

That is great Charlene, i guess i got confused. Brazos penstemon and desert willow coming right up.

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

Josephine, may I please have a pink oxalis?

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

Yes of course, I will pit you down for it.

Karen, Mt.Pleasant, TX

I'm planning to attend the J'ville swap but since I'm new I don't have much to share. I will be digging up tree seedlings around my yard to bring. I have:

redbuds
sweetgums

Maybe Chinese Tallow- I almost cringe to hear the flack I'll take for even admitting that I own this tree as there is a lot of negative comments about it. So far I have enjoyed my trees and love their fall color. They are also very useful for quick shade.

I've already promised some redbud trees to the other newbie named Tina that was at the Arlington swap. I'll have to post later the amounts I will have available of each tree.

BTW- I'm Karen Roper (former username- kdroper). I set up a new profile so that I could have a new more interesting name :)

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

PlayNN... Glad to see you are going to make the Jax. RU too. I am sure I will see you there. I enjoyed meeting you and your friend Vicki at Arl. It is quite a trip for us to make but the area is georgeous and it is a whole new set of DG family members to meet.

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

Hey Karen welcome to DG and honey don't worry if ya don't have much when I moved here 3 yrs ago I didn't either and everyone welcomed me with open arms and plenty of plants.
majority of the plants I have to offer for trade were once gifts/trades from back then.

When I don't have plants to trade I find other things that can be used...homemade bread, homemade birdhouses, others have done jellies, jams and salsa, crafty things,
One mans trash is another man's treasure...so no worries if you have stuff or not we just want your presence so we can addict your brain to gardening and to DG

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Got my list active now, yes I am late to the party...
http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=7550732

Garland, TX(Zone 8a)

Sheila, I'll put your name on some of the coneflowers.

Lee, I don't have the standard tricyrtis hirta to share this year, but my blue ones are very vigorous and I'm seriously thinning them out. Could you use a couple of those?

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Thanks Lee and Pattie!

Willis, TX(Zone 8b)

Hi Patti - yes,....I'd like some, thanks! you got me started on toad lilies a few RU's ago....and I really like 'em!
