It's a great plant! What are you looking for in return?

most anything you have extra,or postage
which ever you choose.
we`re very easy to please..lol

I second the motion. What are you looking for?

Looks like we're on at the same time. Please take a look at my trade page and see if anything interests you. I also have some Cardamom I can divide. It's not going to be hardy for me here.

I have found that if you allow the trader to choose
you not only get a wonderful surprise,but
a *gift* chosen just for you.I`ve gotten some great plants
and seeds that I might not have even thought about.

LOL - Okay! Sounds like you like surprises and I can certainly do that. Just give me an idea of what size division you are sending in terms of the amount of postage. Then I'll put my thinking cap on and get out my trowel.

Pixy,they are a pretty good size
most have at least 4 to 6 bulbs they are a good size
clump I sent some out this morning 1 box was
6.85 the other one was 8.00

Okay, sounds like using the 'flat rate' box at 7.70 postage should do it! That way I can get really creative! You might save on postage by using the flat rate box on some of the heavier ones.

It's raining cats and dogs, so give me a couple of days to get this together, okay?

if this helps anyone this are two of the clumps
that are going out in the a.m

Hi! Will this grow in zone 6a, Northeast Oklahoma? It is really pretty but I bet it's tropical?
Susan

susan it is a tropical not sure about your zone maybe someone will come along and tell us if not I can always send you a
small one you can put in a container.

I would love a cutting of the pinecone if you do not mind. I do have a few but they are hard to get down here.

I can offer you some Giant Upright Elephant Ear babies. They do get big fast though :)

Pheadra,

I'll take 2 of them, if you have them. I always plant things in pairs, for some reason. I don't want to seem greedy here; just if you're looking to get rid of them.

Steve

Hi Pheadra! I think I had better pass on these. I want them really badly, but I am out of room inside the house. I am getting ready to bring in all of the outside pots that I winter over inside. So I will leave room for someone else's name on your list. I appreciate your generosity!
Susan

Hi Pheadra - I received the box today. These things are huge! Thank you so much.

do you have any left? plmk

Hi Pheadra!
Thanks so much for the Pinecone bulbs, They are very nice sized.. I am working on your box to send,, we have had rain here since thursday I believe we got about 4-5 inches so as soon as I am able to get out in my flooded gardens I will send you a surprise box.
Vicki

Hi Pheadra: If you have any left I would love to trade. I have some white butterfly ginger I can trade. Smells lovely.
