I started some in wintersown containers and potted them into cell packs this afternoon, but they are still pretty bitty. I'm sure you're hoping for divisions from established plants, but I thought I'd post so you know you have a backup source. I sowed 2 varieties -- purple, and white with purple eye. I also have a few wintersown little seedlings of purple mullein, Verbascum atroviolaceum.

I don't seem to have any takers on my offer. I may get back to you if you have plenty, when they get bigger. Thanks, Lou

Westbrook, ME(Zone 5a)

Lou - I will look around for re-seeded seedlings. I usually have a few that pop up in odd places. They have a tap root so they don't always transplant well if the root gets broken. I'll see what I can come up with...

I'd be interested in your Autumn clematis

Seymour, IN(Zone 5b)

Thanks so much . Let me know if you come up with some and I will get autumn clematis off to you. Lou

(Zone 7a)

Lou, I have some..They are coming up pretty big and strong. One is a Pink and the other is Banana Custard I believe..interested?

Seymour, IN(Zone 5b)

Kim, I'd be very interested in them. What can I send you in return? Lou

(Zone 7a)

Lou, I can send a banana custard for postage. I'm assuming it's a flowering size rootstock, and has leaves. It'll have to be fast because it's been dug. But I should be able to keep him going...LOL. As for the Pink, I piled a bunch of plants in the wheel barrel and I couldn't find it when I dumped it. So if I find him meantime in the grass...LOL I'll stick him in there too :-D

Have the common yellow if you are interested for some thyme

Seymour, IN(Zone 5b)

Kim Gaither--Thanks so very much! I will get postage back to you as soon as it arrives.

Marclay-- It's a deal- really appreciate the trade! Let me know your address and I will get som ready to ship this weekend. Lou

(Zone 7a)

Lou, I can't send it without the postage...sorry.

Seymour, IN(Zone 5b)

Let me know how much to send, and I will get it right off to you. Sorry for being so presumptious! I understand completely. Lou

(Zone 7a)

Lou, just got some stamps from my daughter..I will send it in the morning!

Received 2 packages today.

Thanks go to KimGaither and Poppysue. The plants were in perfect condition. Thanks so very much. I have never had them before, and I'm anxious to watch them grow and bloom this summer. I will think of you generous Dger's as I watch them grow. Thanks again. Lou
