For quick trade. The canna has red flowers and green leaves with burgandy stem and burgandy strip down the middle of each leaf.
Send me a list of what you have, I'm looking for shade or perennials or just about anything that can grow in my zone. I usually don't know what I will like til I see it.
Thanks,
Daisy
Here's a close up of the blooms.
Hey, Daisy, if you have a little one of that particular canna, could you put it aside for me? I can get it from you later when we manage to work up a trade or when I see you in the fall.
Edited to say, why don't I just work up an order of plants that I want and buy them from you? That would work for me quite well since I didn't get to attend your sale. I probably don't have any plants that you don't have anyway. That is certainly cheaper for me than flying all the way to Houston! LOL!
Hugs,
Elena

Hi Elena,
Buy them???? No way! Just send me a list of what you want. We'll work out the details later. I woulld like to get this canna out here now though because its already out of the ground. I'll put in the mail to you. Can you confirm you mailing address for me...saves me hunting for it. LOL
Daisy
Hold on Daisy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to see what else you might have available and you can put it all in one box. I don't think I have requested anything already or have I??????? A mind is such a terrible thing to waste!!! (especially when it is mine) Please email me and let me know. What else do you have left over that needs to vacate your overcrowded plant storage areas. I can decide easily so just give me an idea what you still have to spare. I still love daylilies, irises, cannas and any perennials or bulbs, that are hardy in 6b zone and house plants that don't get too large. Our backs and joints can't handle the large pots any longer when we have to carry them in and out for the changes of seasons.
Now...if I can't buy them, I will just need to figure a way to repay you....."Hum! Hum!!!!" Maybe I just need to come Houston and take you out to dinner....or take you out to eat in Mt. View....any other ideas.....Or bring you a wealthy, handsome, good looking, fun-loving, kind, single guy who loves to garden and do all the hard work chores around the garden and house! Anyone know someone like that????
My address is on the way to you in an email.
LOL you 2
She's just too generous for her own good, huh, Donna? She could make a fortune off me and is just too good a friend to take advantage of a senile old lady!!!! Ha!
She certainly is. She has given me lots and also grown out lots of seeds for me that I have a problem with. She keeps a few and sends me a few. I think it is a perfect arrangement. We both win.
When you deal with Daisy, there is no way to be anything but a winner! She is a truly great friend and I am proud to claim her friendship.
So am I. :-)
Hey Guys,
I didn't know this conversation was going on.!!!!***BLUSH**BLUSH*** I can not accept these compliments with saying that I'm only a mirror image of my friends. You both have been very nice to me and generous with your plants...it just pushes all sorts of bottons. Makes me want to give YOU more. Know what I mean? And you guys are exactly the type of people from Dave's that I wish would lived closer to me. I love sending you guys extensions of me in my plants.
L O V E Y O U B O T H!
I'm putting a list together for you guys and will send it privately. Most of the stuff is common stuff you guys might already have. But some stuff you might really like to have.
Hugs,
Daisy
