CLOSED: WANTED: Butterfly Bushes, Roses, and Named Hostas

Northeast, AR(Zone 7a)

I have lots of plants to trade. I'm looking for buddleia (butterfly bushes) - any color. Well-rooted, not cuttings or seeds please.

I'm also looking for some nice roses, particularly some climbing roses for an arbor in my wedding garden. I also love miniature roses. I want ONLY own-root roses--no grafts as they always revert on me. I'm not really into red roses but prefer every other color. I need welll-rooted roses, not cuttings.

I'm also looking for a good start (no tissue cultures please) of some unique, named hostas. I want to line my drive with hostas. One side is in shade most of the day, but the other side is in sun most of the day. So I'm hoping someone has hostas that will tolerate my southern sun. I used to have one years ago that thrived here, but I decided I didn't like hostas and gave it away. I'd like to try hostas again. I already have Stained Glass, Golden Tiarra, Zounds, and a couple of others.

DAYLILIES: One trade is one Double Fan (DF) unless otherwise stated below with TF (Triple Fan):

You can look these daylilies up in the database at http://www.tinkersgardens.com to see what they look like and how tall they get. If you need to see some that aren't shown there, let me know and I'll post pics from my gardens here.

We're expecting more rain, so I don't know when I'll be able to dig. I'm going to try to dig for the trades I've already made tomorrow. If we can settle the terms of our trade, then I can dig it tomorrow too.

If interested in trading with me, please let me know.

More rain is right...we had a two day break from the rain. It's been raining all day, just checked the radar, looks like it will be raining all night. I sure hope this isn't an indication of a dry summer ahead of us Nancy....the dry summer on top of the cold temps caused me to lose seveal plants. My Japanese maples have entire branches that are dead. Speaking of...I need to figure out how to trim them up.

Last year began like this didn't it? A wet and cold winter, a wetter spring, and only two rains all summer. I guess Mother Nature rained herself out.

I lost my red jap maple, several bearded irises, some daylilies, my beautiful huge Joe Pye Weed, and several other plants.

I posted pics of what my yard looks like today after torrential rain all night and all day:

I did manage to get out between downpours and dig plants for one of my trades, but it started pouring just as I finished that trade. I have more I need to dig and pack.

We've got two more days of rain, and then 4 days of sunshine!! I hope the weatherman wasn't kidding! Are you expecting some sun, Osteole? If you need to come up to higher ground, give me a shout. Maybe we can get out in my yard and dig you up some plants to replace some you've lost.

I'm adding Green Flutter to the list of daylilies I have. I'm digging it and dividing today since it's in a spot I can work in.

Where are all the daylily lovers? Do I not have anything anyone wants?

I'm also adding Mini Pearl and a NOID dark mauve daylily to the list of daylilies I have to trade. The NOID is pictured below.
