Nor Cal Roundup - September 24 - Plant trades

That's a great picture!!! What is AHS?
Annie

American Hemerocallis Society, would be easier for everyone if it was American Daylily Society http://www.daylilies.org/ since most know what that is and AHS can be confused with American Hosta Society or American Horticultural Society.
(not to mention American Home Shield, American Headache Society, American Housing Survey, American Helicopter Society, Agency of Human Services, American Historic Society, Australian Herpetological Society, Antiquarian Horological Society and the list goes on...Daylily would be simpler) :-)

By the way, I have several threads with garden and bloom pictures on the Daylily forum of that Cincinnati trip. (pages 3, 4-5 as of today)

Oh and Stella D'oro is a perennial as are all daylilies, but it is a dormant that needs more cold to really do it's best. You may have enough cold where you are but in general, some dormants may not do as well for us here in CA, they will bloom OK but be slow in increase and vigor. Not always, just some. There are hard dormants too, they just struggle and some eventually just disappear. But if you peak at the daylily forum, you can see a whole another world beyond Stella!

LOL, ya I know!!! I've gone there, and have seen many in photos etc., In my garden in Carbon Canyon, Chino Hills mine was up all year as an evergreen.
Annie

I will have some iris, maybe a few daylilies, want more iris and daylilies :)
My hubby has a lot of unusual stuff, I'll have him make a list.


Sandy (and Curtis)

Aha! Here are the plant trades....would anyone be interested in Arum Italicum, yellow cannas or 4 O'clocks? Also, have vinca major and varigated vinca...and lots of it...Dottie

We had a minor catastrophe early this week, a 150 year old limb on the mulberry covering our back yard and deck area fell. Boy, was that a 2 am wake up boom! It did little to no damage to the deck, house and or the millions of potted plants on the decks, thank you Lord, and we have more firewood than we can use now. BUT, it did destroy the eco-system of that area, previously a completely shaded are roughly 500 sq feet! The plants in the ground are now shaded with brilliantly coloured beach umbrellas (it looks like a circus out there) and all the 132 potted children are being moved to the few bits of shade remaining, the house, the neighbor's, you name it. It was a west limb, so guess what I have now? Total sun from noon to nine, and 107 degree weather to boot.

I would be terribly interested in trading anything I have on the list way up in this thread for plants that tolerate/love full sun and can live in a pot no matter the size. The deck is, well, empty. WAAAAAAAAA!

I will be bringing a bunch of sun-loving plants. No worries! :~D

Kachinagirl, and that's a good thing right now, LOL, I'm looking for anything strange and different in C&S!!!!!! I think I might make space for at least a couple more, I think my collection has hit 300 now, most of them young,
Annie

I'll probably have some C & S, but mostly perennials and shrubs. I have lots of cutting and dipping in Rootone to do this weekend!
:~D

Ah, Kachina, you are a doll!!! Blessings!!!

The other daylily I planted was 'Rajah'! Those are the only ones I have right now!

Please look at my trade list for one of the many many plants I'm looking for, LOL LOL, I keep wishing!!!!

I'm looking for Daylily "lady Scarlet"
Brug: Reddish, Rose, hot pink, pretty skirted ones, doubles, whatever, I'm not fussy, I'll take the left overs!
Sure hope my other cuttings for trades will take!

Coleus 'Molten Lava', and more
Lantana 'Radiation' 'Gold Mound' 'Dallas Red'
Lobelia Excelsia
Passiflora Vitifolia and another
Porttucaca Grandiflora
Memdevilla x amoena
Pelargonium Citrosum
Orange
Rose
Flanders Poppy ' Lady Bird' seeds
Dietes iridioites, Forthnight lily
Border Penstemon, midnight

and more I'm sure

Hi Jerodsmom

I would love to place my name down for one each of pink beauty, Double white, creamsickel, desiree and Herrenhauser Graten if i may, i looked up on the plant files and was drooling over them. These are a great thing for my garden as the deer do not eat them...yeahhh..

Will be writing down what i have to trade later this week, i do not have much at this point, so would be willing to go out and get something you may want if i need to, as my nursery has little of the exotic brugs in stock...

Let me know what you think.

Diane

Hi Ladyanne

love the butterfly bush black night and the cleveland sage and malva- all deer resistant so wil be putting up my sparse trade list later as i am just starting my garden, but would love to trade for those if i may in some way.

Thanks Diane

Ladyanne i forgot to add on the white ginger and the star jasmine...

Thanks Diane

Jerodsmom

I would love a piece of Herrenhauser Graten, I don't have one that color yet and I would love to add something like that to the warmer colors I am adding lately.

hanna1, I would love some border penstemon, passiflora vitifolia, and flander's poppy seeds.

Diane, I will happily bring those for you, but I am not sure the star jasmine will take that quickly, certainly will try!. Wish you were closer, because most of my yard is supposedly deer resistant, according to Western:
Escallonia, Plumbago, Lilac, Germander, Ajuga, Carolina Jasmine, Wisteria, Potato vine, Jupiter's beard, CA poppy, Oregon Grape, Verbena, Lamb's Ears, Calendula. If I don't have cuttings, I can bring seeds for lots.

Your area wouldn't have Madagascar jasmines, would it???

lilystorm, I will start them for you! On the Flander's poppy, my 4 year old GD was visiting and she said, look, there's Ladybugs flowers growing there! I laughed, I had forgotten they are actually called that, LOL.
Annie

Thanks, Annie. Let me know if you want anything that I'm bringing. I'll update my post above with what I'm planning to trade/get at the roundup.

No problem!!

Hi Lady anne

i personally do not have any, but i can check the local nursery's for you :)

thanks for all the offers though, i will catch up by mail with you on deer ideas though.

Daine

does anyone have an extra fuschia boliviana 'alba'? i just lost mine. :( tell me what you want for it...

Oh mmqc, sorry to hear that, hope someone may have it for you!!!
Annie

mmqc, I just lost my fuschia boliviana 'alba' too last week, I think I watered it too much, it barely grew from the time I first bought it in it's 4" pot and just lost all it's leaves and then rotted. I bought it from Annie's Annuals. I really want to try it again and plan on picking up another when I go back soon. She has two huge ones there, just stunning. Let me know, I can pick up another for you and hopefully keep it alive until the RU.

that would be great calif sue if you could get one for me. otherwise i was going to go back to one of the strybing sales and hope i'd find another one for sale. the one i lost was 4 ft tall in a 5 gallon pot.

anyone have passiflora exoniensis? lost that one too.

brugmansia sanguinea seedlings (needs shade in summer). have several plants => jerodsmom
succulents:
- atropurpureum => hanna1
- red echeveria? => picturelady
other:
X penstemon, dark purple - 'midnight'? gallon => picturelady, bncybncytigger (sorry, the plants died)

mmqc, I would love to get one of your Atropurpureum! Thanks, Annie

mmqc...I would love a Penstemon and an Echeveria...Thanks, Margie

potemup, i have a white perennial datura (i think wrightii?) seedling that came up in a pot. interested?

Calif _Sue and Diane, I will get those cuttings rooted for you.

Diane, I really enjoyed getting together with you yesterday.

Lilystorm, I have your hydranga's potted up and rooting as we speak

mmqc, I would love one of your brug. sanguinea seedlings, are you looking for any other brugs.?

I also wanted to add that I will have rooted cuttings of var. fushia if anyone wants any.

I started my list and i have a little more than i thought, but they are pretty common varities, so here goes


Salvia- mexican sage - plants
Salvia - pineapple sage - rooted cuttings
Salvia- gentian blue sage - seedlings

Penstemon deep hot pink color unsure of what type - plants

Trailing geraniums - unsure of name - magenta, lavender and deep red color -rooted cuttings

Cerinthe purpurascens -at the moment seedlings, probably small plants by fall

Geranium - fuzzy leafed mint geranium, has small white flowers - rooted cuttings

and a few more that i need to find out the names..... :)

Diane

Chris - aka Jerods mom thank you so much for a truly wonderful day, you are one of the most genrous people i have the pleasure to know, not only in the two brugs you gave but in the experience and the tips and just the open attitude in sharing you are a pleasure to know and i am so happy we got together in person.

I had so much fun checking out nurseries with you, but the best place by far was your back garden and seeing the wonderful mixture of plants and wow what great ideas i now have for my eventual garden.

Looking forward to other trips around the area to see garden things together.

The brugs are also doing fine and looking good.

Safe trip

Diane

Diane/Tigger, Hot pink Penstemon sounds great, yes yes yes! and Cerinthe P., I just looked it up, looks grand!!!
Thanks,
Annie
PS: I have a lot of Succulents if someone is interested!

jerodsmom: i'll bring a b. sanguinea for you. i'm trying to save some of my brugs by rerooting them. they started shriveling up at the base due to drought. if they don't root i'll be looking for replacements. other than that, i'd like to try your ambrosia. is it worth growing?

Annie/Hanna1

the penstemon and cerinthe p. are marked for you. I just read the trade, it takes a while as i have to have the plant book in front of me to know what everything is.....but i would love the Passiflora Vitifolia if you still have one, as i have tried to root this from cuttings and am not having any luck yet.....

Diane

Annie?hanna1 forgot to add if i may some of the flanders poppy seeds.....as its a while since i have seen those, but yes they are great looking.

Diane

I will try to root some Passifloras!!! I also have red! And go outside to look for more seeds of the Ladybug!
