Hi: I still would like to make a trade with you. I have a bright white beared iris I can trade. If you would be interested in. You can polinate with another color to make your own experement. To the best of my knowledge this Iris is a vergin. Hope to hear back from you. Thanks JAKE
Celene.. I appreciate the offer but I don't do seeds, annuals, or house plants.
I have lots of sedums, but I don't think many on your list, and right now they're pretty darn dormant. Thank you though!

Okyo.. In the process of designing a flower/grass grouping around the fence posts at the entrance to our drive. Send me your address. Do you have other daylilies? A possible on irises. I would like to send you egg cases now before it gets warm and they decide to hatch.
Celene...could maybe use the Voodoo stonecrop if you know where it is or would send a start of it to me when it comes up.
Okyo...how about a Midnight Revelry iris or an Always Afternoon daylily. I am not sure I have a place for it...would you mind if I traded it for something else with somebody that wants it?
Please send your address
Sounds OK with me. I sent you my address early today. Didn't you get it ?
Okyo...nope
Celene??? still want egg cases??? They are ready to go!
I don't have much to trade for them at the moment, and don't want to count my chickens (or mantids, lol) before they're hatched, that wouldn't be fair to you.
Okyo... I shipped mantid egg cases to you yesterday. The large one, of which I very few of, is the case of the Chinese mantids I only shipped one and there are several of the smaller ones which are the Carolina mantids.
The mantids are the same size and look almost identical.
Thank you! I will make sure you get some super-cool sedums in the spring, as soon as they sprout. I pretty much have pots and marker tags at this point :)
Last call!
The Daylily's will be shiped out today. Hope the weather breaks for you to be able to get them into the ground ? If you have any extra Praying Mantis. I plan to use the 1st batch you sent me in my front yard (I have 6 Gardens in the front) & I have 12 Gardens in the back. I am spread out with a very large yard area. Please let me know.
