Have about three trades of each. Omega is 7' tall with green leaves and peach blooms. Intrigue is 7' tall has bronze leaves and orange blooms. Also have about 4 trades of Crocosmia (Montbretia) red orange blooms & lots of clereodendrum bungii (cashmere bouquet).
I'm looking for cane or rhizome type begonias similar to what you see here. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/439855/ Or perennials hardy to zone 8A. Am open to other suggestions. I have to make room for a brugmansia bed so need to get these out of the way.
Thanks,
Daisy

Have tall cannas Intrigue and Omega
Bump*** to add other things I'm finding as I clean out beds.
Daisy,
Are you interested in wax begonia? It also has three very small rooted angel wing begonia in the same pot. I can send a picture of it later tonight when my DH comes home. My camera acting up right now. :0(

Hi Patti,
I would love to see the photos. I'm going out later tonight but can take a look at the photos in the morning.
Thanks,
Daisy
Hi Patti,
Nice photos. I have those. I keep a pot full of them, then in spring I put them out in my beds. Right around September or October I take cuttings for next year. Kinda like coleus. Got any interesting coleus?
Daisy, can these be used in a pond? Just wondering?
Trying to figure if I would have anything you would be interested in being as how you are in Tx.
I live in Wisc.
I do have dahlia's that I am not going to bring in this fall.

Hi Maxine,
Most cannas love water and full sun. I have never tried growing them in a pond. Maybe someone else has. You might want to ask around.
For some reason I can not grow dalias. I love them but I don't know what I am doing wrong. I think maybe they freeze. What temps are they are to?
Daisy, I really don't know the freeze zone for growing Dahlia's outside and leaving them out over winter.
I did look and I have a pink geranium if you are interested.
I know, I'm reaching!!!

bilyn, rose318 and Maxine,
you guys have mail...
Hello,
Like they say the check is in the mail.
Please let me know how to send cuttings of the coleus. I'm kind of a newbie to this cutting stuff!
My address is

Thank you in advance,
Linda(bilyn)
bilyn,
Just cut them about 6 inches long, wrap the cut end in moist paper towel, then wrap that end with plastic and tape the plastic to the stem so no moisture will escape the wrapped roots. Then wrap the whole think in newspaper and stick it in a box. They will arrive to me as if I cut them from your bed that day.
Good luck with trading at Dave's. If you ever need any help with shipping any kind of plant please email me and I'll walk you through it.
Daisy
