If it's a vine, tropical, and blooms, I WANT IT! LOL I guess my MOST wanted vines for this year would be:

Thunbergia - blue sky vine (also the white)
Any white-blooming passiflora
Any Passiflora I don't have

Oh, heck - just look at the page of the gal here who lives in Florida and grows one of everything - LOL - I want all that she grows in her yard!!! You know - the wonderful lady who shares all her pictures with us!

Nuts4spuds...LOL I broke down and ordered the B. sanguinea, too. But I guess my wish list would be

Passiflora Adenopoda
P. Aurantia
P. Coriacea
Digitalis Obscura
Aristolochia, any
Musa sikkimensis (heck, any banana)
Dioon or Cycas
Clianthus, any
Allium cernuum
Clematis cirrhosa
Rosa mutabilis
Petasites japonicus
Plumeria, caudiciforms, succulents....

I should really stop now before I start wanting everything! I know, I've seen the pictures too. It really gives me zone envy. I'd love to be growing all that stuff too. Sigh, but until I can move to a tropical island, I'll just have to make due with a greenhouse.

Ok Here is some of my wants: Just seeds right ? lol
Pink Angel Trumpet
Yellow Angel Trumpet
Stella Doro PURPLE
Ice Plant
Uncommon Clematis
Giant Marconi sweet pepper
Yellow Monster sweet pepper
Silver Lace Vine
Creeping Rosemary

This is only a small list of my wants LOL
vicki

I have high hopes and ambitions to start 3 new gardens this year! Not sure if my body will cooperate though (FMS). I like themes so I plan on having a Bible garden, moon garden, and shade garden for the north side of my house. Already have some great moss!

My journal lists all the plants for each garden and my Want list is quite large. Since I'm just starting out this year I don't have much to trade yet, but would be willing to pay for postage. While my lists include some annuals, at this point I'm only interested in perennials, shrubs and small trees.

Edited to add my list: (all white varieties)
Common Lilac
Delphinium
Dusty Miller - Got it
Dwarf Caladium
Lily of the Valley
Moonflower - Got it
Hydrangea
Oriental lily
Sweet alyssum
Coneflower
Hibiscus - Got it

Bamboo the real bamboo like kind fishing poles used .
BaT PLANT
Rice paper plant
Gunnera mani.

columbine crimson star
columbine aquilegia vulgaris
creeping thyme

Penstemon Husker Red ...

Nicole, I will throw a couple more packs of seeds in the trade we are already doing...Pauletta

Different Angle Trumpets, these hang different from Daturas don't they? Any type of Brug seeds too, these are all new to me, so trying to start a collection ;-)

Ansofan, I have some yellow primrose (sundrops), about 15 seeds, and the pink primrose (oenothera speciosa) a whole pack of those, also I have a pack of radar love, I will split them with you

Calalily, I saw your post before wondering if you could grow columbine, I think that was you, I can send you some seed to experiment with, the flowers go before the end of summer, but the plants stick around a little longer, it's hot and muggy here ;-) They are like pink bonnets and icy purple, but they are mixed seeds...I have about 5 seeds of the malva zebrina you are more than welcome to.

admodeva, I have the tex. red star hibiscus and a hardy med. pink, I have a yellow one, but don't know if it is hardy yet, think it is...almost sure it would be hardy for you, your zone is a little warmer than mine. I also have about 8 canna seed I collect at a friends house in 2004, if you think they are still good u can have them.

frausnow,
Have plenty moonflower seeds (Datrua Inoxia), plus I have a few glow at night verbena, suppose to be perennial, I haven't seen it come back yet lol but lovely at night, it glows at dusk. I have a few seeds to the old fashion lilac, would be willing to share.

Gardengen, I think I have the pink balloon flowers, are they light pink? I know I have some skull cap and mont blanc (a few) and I think they are really small aren't they, can't recall right now.

Nut4spuds, whish I could help u out, a lot of seeds u r looking for I would like to have too lol

Well I think that's it ;-)
Lea

Lea, I can trade you brug seeds for malva and columbine.
I bought 5 plants of columbine to see how they do.

Calalily,
Sounds good to me, do you plant the brugs like the datura? I'm so excited, have been admireing these brugs on here for about two years now and now I can grow one for myself ;-)

Gardengen, can't find the pink balloon flower seed, or the mont blanc, I have seed around here every where, if I find them I will send, sorry, I just saw the mont blanc the other day....
Lea
I will share my lavatera 'white cherub' with you from value seeds, they look to be about the same as mont blanc.

This message was edited Jan 20, 2006 3:12 PM

Lea, brug seeds are easy. Some growers peel the seeds then soak the little "bean" that is inside. They germinate faster if you do that. Badseed is a good seed starter, you can ask her which works best!

Come to think of it, I read somewhere on here they did that, do you plant them about 1/4" deep?
Lea

Yes, about a quarter inch deep. Sometimes they take forever to germinate, sometimes they come up fast.

Okay, here goes.
Nut- I probably have some brugmansia seed. If not, I can send cuttings. Also, if you wait unitl spring, I can dig you up a rice paper plant. Waiting to see if my mother rice paper plant makes seeds.

KayJones-girlfriend. Send me a reminder and I will root you a thunbergia (how about a variegated thunbergia also). What else do I need to send you.

Jess-if you want to wait untill spring, I can root you an aristol. and a plumeria

Gardenjen-I can send you daylily seeds. No telling what you would get though. All my daylilies came from Gulfhaven. There are no Stellas. To see some of my daylilies, look up some of my posts in the Daylily forum.

Imzadi-I can send morning glories.

Moretz-what kind of variegated banana? If it is AeAe, well I cant help you with that, but if you are looking for zebrina/roho, I will have those in the spring. I may have midnight ginger. Last year was the first year to grow that , so I need to see if it comes back. Hard to grow.

lilyhostaky-I have daylily seeds. Pretty ones. You can look up some of my daylilies in the daylily forum.

hope43-I have bamboo, but I dont know which one it is. I thought it was arrow bamboo, but it has bloomed two years in a row and they just dont do that. I can also send you a rice paper plant in the spring. Waiting to see if my mommy rice paper plant makes seeds. Here is my rice paper plant in bloom (blooming now)

I have a couple things that I can share.
Hope43 - sent you Dmail I have Bat plant.
Admodeva - I have lots of seed of hardy hibiscus.
Frausnow - I have lots of a snowball hydrangea. See this thread for info. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/566845/
Imzadi - I will be rooting cuttings of my abutilons this spring.
I also have some small babies of ice plant. It's been wet this winter so I'll have to wait spring to be sure they make it. They don't like to be kept wet.

I'll have to think a bit to narrow my list to 15.

rylaff - I'd love to get cuttings of variegated thunbergia.
