I have 3 huge yucca bulbs to trade. I am new to trading and have alot of plants i want. I love daylilies (don't want yellows), houseplants, periennals would like some ornamental grass. Tell me what you want to trade and we will go from there. As i said i am new to this so you can help me through it. The yucca bulbs are nice large bulbs. I got them from my father whom is a landscaper. I was given 5 and am planting 2 myself I will trade the other 3. They can go all to one person or be split up. The bulbs are dormant right now. The plants have beautiful white flowers on them in mid-late summer which caught my interest last year. I just got the bulbs from my father yesterday.
CLOSED: have yucca or adam's needle for trade only
are they bulbs or tubers?.....I might would be interested to trade, if it's one i dont have....... I have many native yucca, is this the one they call spanish dagger? it has a stiff swordlike spike.....my natives have a soft spike.
they are huge bulbs that look like elephant ears bulbs
intresting........I have for trading right now..yellow bog iris......yellow or purple triple datura seeds.......Native big Blue Stem grass, dark leafed canna.(pictured)....soapwort, (bouncing bett) see plant files it is an evergreen ground cover.....red spider lily......others this spring just cant think of anything right now you might like...
these are the yucca i hve now.the taller is a spanish dagger.......the lower on the right is the soft leafed I dont know the propername and the plant on the left is a mexican agave
I assume these are the kind that are tall and spiky i just called my dad and he said he got these bulbs from a lady he landscaped her house. he thinks they are the spiky tall growing variety but i don't know the name and can't be 100% sure. I like the plants you have to trade. I am willing to trade you. I just want you to be happy with the variety i have. The bulbs are very nice healthy looking bulbs. Let me know. My husband loved the pictures of your cannas! I like the grass and the soapwort. I have a pond that isn't planted at all was here when we moved here. It has catfish and brim in it but no plants so the iris would be nice. You could just send me what you like to as i can't pick lol.

Wellllllllllllllll,
they look exactly like EE bulbs........I sure wish you'd ask your father if he knows the name of them.......I do believe they are EE bulbs, as I have never seen a yucca bulb like these...I am going to photo and send them to the southwest forum to see if anyone knows the species..help if u can..
