OK I will start off the new thread begging(shush Ceejay)lol
Anyone have any of the Black and Blue Salvia that is so bothersome? I will take it off your hands. :)
Btw, I found some Apple Mint out front, loads of it
.(Sylvia, hostas don't like me, but I am willing to try, again) Annette for Pete's sake you're in zone 8B! you are probably stingy with the water, I am bringing you "Montana"Aureomarginata, in a pot, let it stay in the pot until it gets too big, then switch to a bigger pot.
Charlene I want to do your cuttings now, while I'm getting everything together, where do I began cutting?
Sylvia, I would love some of that apple mint. I have dill or oregano to trade you for it. :)
I'll see if any of my blue and black salvia has come back, Sylvia. :-)
Thanks Marilyn. I just figured out how to add to my list,so every thing will be there. Marilyn, Do I have anything you want. I am still finding stuff. Oh Oh! Obediant Plant!
Its all over the place, you can have as much as you want.
I added 2 Jewel of Opar to my list.
Of course your obedient plant is all over the place, Sylvia. That's what it does. It obeys when you move a flower; just don't try to tell it to stay in one place! LOL
I DO have two black & blue salvias for you. (You really like troublesome plants, don't you?)
I am adding bronze fennel to my trades list. And one white fall aster - I don't know its botanical name. (If anybody can help me with that, please do!)
The mock orange is bursting with bloom. You're gonna be sorry if you pass this one up!

Becky - What do you mean by black-eyed Susan?
Annette, Please, I would like a crossvine.
Id love some apple mint if possible.. thanks
why thank you Ceejay, you want some obedient plants? lol
Ceejay are you giving me the Mock orange?
Sandy I will take the jewel of Opel. :)
I hired this young guy to come and help me get every thing in the ground, cause I thought I was through. I look out the window and there is a box on the front porch!
Michigan Bulb got a terrific sale its 8.95 to ship anything! I ordered 12 of those Oriental Poppies. 3/2.99, 2 hibiscus bushes and 4 lavendar, I got to buy 40.00 worth of stuff so I can get 20.00 off! I am only up to 37.73. lol
Ceejay, mock orange please. What can I add for you?
Sylvia, I think the cuttings you sent already may eventually root as they have leafed out, no roots yet, but I think that with the leaves coming on, they will root.
I don't know for sure, but I think if you take more cuttings you should but below a node and cuttings should be about 8-10 inches long. That is a guess!
Charlene
Did you want a mock orange, Sylvia? Got you down for one, Charlene.
Ok I will do that Charlene, I think some of that maybe Sumac. Charlene did that dead looking wood root? I got some Clemitis vines that do that.
Blkraven I got you down for the Apple mint.
That Apple mint make the best Mojitos!
Sylvia, I have mojito mint. :-)
I can give a cutting or two to anyone who would like them. Too late to root them now. I don't want to dig them up, cuz I like my mojitos!

Got you down for the crossvine, ceejay!
Ceejay, I would like to try that Mojito mint! :) I had five or six types of mint even Chocolate. I put them in my neighbors yard, because I did not have the room in the back.
I'm so glad I'm not your neighbor! My mojito mint is in a planter, and is not allowed near any garden bed. I'd be out there fending you off with a garden rake!
Thanks, Annette!
Sylvia - did you want a mock orange or not?
Carolyn.. you asking me??.LOL.. all I know is black eyes Susan, but it's a rudbeckia I think.. yellow petals brown center about 24" tall... I think..LOL.. these are new to me, even though they grow wild around here..LOL.. got them from Michigan Bulb last fall (like Sylvia but i got 25 off..lol).. they were tiny but growing some now... since you asked.. I'm putting your name on it!!... btw Thanks for the new thread.... I had to tap my toes for a few before the page would ever load..lol... dial up is all we have out in the sticks here
Sylvia, did you get me down for the apple mint?
ceejaytown, can I have some of the mojio mint? I love those!
I have oregano, dill, or a lone squash to trade for it.
Wow....a lot has transpired since you started the new thread.....thanks for doing so....much better!!!
I have today off from work and am going to start digging and potting. Should I go ahead and pot up some extras or do you think I will just end up bringing the extras home and having to replant? And should I put the plants in pots or just extra containers? What is the protocol please.
Jan
Protocol, schmotocol - whatever works best for you. Lots of people put smaller plants in styrofoam cups. Some use the black pots. Just try to mark them so when they go to their new home, their new owner will know what they are.
It would be great if you could bring some extras; somehow they always go home with someone. That's how I got my fig tree and the speedwell, a ground cover I love. But if you'd rather not, that's OK too. It does make more work for you.
Gotcha for the mojito mint, sapphirestar. I'll take a dill for the flutterbys, please.
LOL Ceejay, I am a good neighbor! I live in a duplex and my neighbor is an invalid so I plant both sides of the yard and she just loves it. Granted, when I discard stuff, I put it in her backyard. lol Yes I want the Mock Orange!
Becky, I just finished my Michigan bulb order. I got about 27 plants and my entire came to 30.85 with the shipping, you want the Link? I am doing it online but you need your key code number to get the discount out the catalog. I wish they had more trees.;) I keep looking at that Blackeyed Susan also 3/5.99 how big is the flower?
Sapphire, I got you down for the Apple mint. I am wondering if I need to pot op the mint or could I dig it friday Morning and keep the roots moist?
I know you're a good neighbor, Sylvia. Especially if you take care of the plants, too.
I just have to say this: You are aware of Michigan Bulb's reputation, aren't you?
Adding one mock orange for Sylvia. Can you bring me one hosta that you think might do well here in the humid south? DH has a small collection going. Some are smaller than others. LOL!
Going out now to get the plumeria tree into the ground. Whoo boy, that is one big chore. I'll check back later...

Thanks! Ceejay, got you down for the dill. Gonna be some happy flutterbyes this year.
Yeah, I am aware of Michigan Rep, I just hope the Poppies come out all right ... even if they are mixed, I will probably get them all the same color.They are supposed to liquidating.
Got you down for a Hosta.
i am not aware of the michigan bulb reputation... what is it? i just planted a bunch of stuff from them this month, and so far everything is doing great, but all still very young.
Sylvia... I have the new catalog too with the 20 off, and have been wondering..lol.. but I really don't NEED anything else... yeah right... I have over 200 lily bulbs coming shortly, and just planted about 45. The black eyed Susan blooms are about 3", but loaded with them. These are probably like mine and tiny.. in 2x2 pots, but they have grown pretty well over the winter and I am even getting blooms off the cones I got. I like ... because it's a perennial
Oh on the reputation... MB has tiny plants, but I have never gotten any plant that has the root system those had when I got them last fall. That order sat on a neighbors porch for over a week, and they don't live there...lol.. so after that, and a couple freezes we had, by the time I realized maybe it was there, the plants looked dead. So I called and they said box them up, and they'd sent UPS back out for them, so they sat another 2 weeks, in the dark box. I called again, and the girl said throw them away, and they'd send out new when the planting was right. HO.... I scurried to that box like a rat...lol... and some were coming back from the roots! Uh... I failed to call them that they were alive.. hehehe. I did get a few things this spring, and they were out of the Verbascum, and sent a refund!! So I can't say enough good about MB! Guarantee if for your lifetime!! And from what I see, you just call, you don't have to keep the receipts!
Becky - Yes, ma'm, I'll take both kinds! Thank you bunches!
WillisTx - thanks for the lavender scallops - (now I gotta go look it up!LOL)

Hmm, I don't think it was there. Or do I not know what I'm looking for? (totally possible! lol!)

madrid 2000- Can I talk you out of some of that sweet herb and lemon grass?
Sylvia did you want both Jewel of Opar?
Ok, I added this to the wrong thread. I will probably be there after all. And all that I have to trade is Applemint, and tons of it. And a little Copper Canyon Daisy. Trying to bug Irene into coming with me.
Anne
Yayy! :-)
If anyone has any salvia or passifloras or bulbine or gaura to share or trade plmk. Also I forget (I'm dog tired and need to go to bed) who wanted the rose cuttings, but I have Iceburgs (one bush the other climbing) and a Don Juan (climber) Also a noid small red rose (I think it was supposed to be related in some way to Don Juan) Anyway let me know I can do cuttings.
