Calif. Roundup-June 25 - Plant trades

Eliza,

Oh yes, there will be lots of pictures taken for sure. I for one have a digital and will be snapping away.

We will have name tags, Janice is bring them. Just so you know, there are a lot of people coming this time that have not met each other yet, so it will be fun to see lots of new faces.

The best way to remember who your plant goes to, is to write their name on the pot. That way you remember what goes to who, or whatever. lol

For most of you that are so worried about not having many plants or no plants to trade.....remember this "we are meeting new friends" and the food and plants are all extra's. I am getting so excited to finally meet some new people that I've met on DG.

Only 3 more days....who's counting? Tomorrow will be spent arranging all my plants and making sure I have them marked with the name of the plant and who it goes to.

Thank you Janet. Your hyperlinks above are not working. You might not have enough space between the name of the plant and the hyperlink. It's happened to me many times also.

Donna

Don,

My mom would love the papaya. May I have one?

Thank you,

~Eliza~

Jo call me again. No one is answering the number I have. :-(

I have these to trade Lol! Just kidding.

Oh Janice, I hope some of them can go home with me.....

BTW, how many do you think are in that barrel?

Donna

Couple hundred. A few each day turn into frogs and move on. I will have Fiona make up a habitat so we can transfer the froglets to it and bring you some. They are soooooooo tiny. Your fishies would go YUM!

Kathleen, they did cross.
Hey all, I'm bringing some red plant, (if my computer would let me upload and stop giving me problems, I could send a pic) loves sun... don't know its name... I have some epiphyllium too if anyone is into epies...
Geraniums
papyrus
red apple (ground cover)
cactus

I'll go look and see what else I can bring.
How do you all transport them? Is a bucket of water ok or do they need to be potted?

weegy12,

That's what I've been doing every afternoon now: go around the garden to see what I can bring. I really look forward meeting every one.

~Eliza~

..........any takers for
spearmint
purple tall bearded iris
a pink geranium that has flowers that look like a
ball???

Anybody want my weeds??!!

I think the links will work now. When I did the 'cut and paste' the hyperlinks didn't transfer.

Janet...you are truly one of the best!! Jo

Janet, I would love some

See y'all on Saturday. 8-)) Janet

I've gotcha covered SoCal

Papaya for your mother is no problem kateliza_id

Naien, your covered with your new requests.

It is supposed to be cooler tomorrow........Might only get up to 90-95.

I found a bunch of stuff in my yard! I'll be busy all day!! I'll just bring what I've got and I'll bring plenty of epies. Any takers for any of the other things?

I'm very interested in Epies weegy12 but only after you've covered all other takers and can comfortably (for your mother plants) fit me in.

naien,

I would love to have the Amaryllis belladonna bulb.

I don't have anything else to trade, so in case you still have adolescent Aquilegia vulgaris 'William Guiness' plant left, I would love to have one.

Thank you,

~Eliza~

I went on a seed-planting rampage thjis spring so I have lots of the columbine seedlings to pass out... they're woody shrubs, right? I have like 30, no way they'll all fit when they get older. Also, I recently started tilling the soil in the backyard and found countless Mirabilis jalapa bulbs and Amaryllis belladonna bulbs, so anyone that wants them is welcome to them.

So far, all I have is drdon and kathleen for epis, I have night blooming and pink...
frogrus, do you want the red bushy plant that loves sun? I can't wait til someone tells me what it is..I hate seeming plant dumb!
Here's the list I came up with from my yard...

Dusty Miller
purple iris (unknown)
spearmint
3 sided cactus (dumb again!)
cactus with red prickly things (this you don't want to touch!)
pink and night blooming white epies
"Caeser's Brother" siberian iris
Geraniums...a pink one I want to say is a floribunda..the flowers grow like a ball
Martha Washington geranium..pink with purple center

I have plenty of everything for whoever wants some. Not bad for not having anything, huh?
I can't wait to meet you all.
Oh, does anyone have a red and white fuschia???

Since I don't have any pots here, would it be ok to just bring my rooted plants in small buckets with a little water?

weegy12,

I would love to take purple tall bearded iris and "Caeser's Brother" siberian iris. Do you want cup flower plant that I have? My plant doesn't bloom much as in the picture.

~Eliza~

I would love the cup flower, thanks. I have you down for the purple iris and the siberian..I'm changing my screen name to plantdummy!!!!!!!!!

weegy, you can't be plantdummy, cuz I am! Do you have newspaper? Why not wrap them in damp then dry newspaper?
