Looking to trade named semps and jovis for named semps and jovi's I do not have to increase my collection. Prefer to trade in April for a number of varieties to save on postage and give plants a good start for the winter. I am offering one or two chicks from last year's productions of each variety to be traded (plants in second year).
No, if you named your semp Bob, Elaine or Dipsy Do, then that is not the name I am looking for, just commercially named ones from companies.... :-) ...so it would be nice if you could source them as well.
I have lots of varieties and will shortly have a list available of what I can trade - This post is to get you working on your list and to see if there is interest out there.
TIA

Want to trade my named semps and jovis for your named semps and jovis. These plants were chicks last year or the year before and should produce chicks this year if transplanting does not set them back too much. Looking to swap a small, priority box of 1 or two chicks per type in April. Will add more to this list. Also, if you do not care about names, I have some vry nice unnamed semps that I can include. DM if interested and we can talk.
Mine will be budding soon, I'll list mine as soon as I'm sure I have offsets to offer.
Great to hear from you again, Celene. My h&c's exploded into growth and started coloring up even as the snow was melting off of them. Some great looking colors this year and few losses (probably due to the good (now that's an interesting phrase!) snow cover).
Can't wait to trade - still working on my list as well.
