I had read the other thread, so it made perfect sense to me. LOL! Sylvia got sidetracked with trying to get a move organized. She needs help potting up her plants on the 28th, she is moving on the 1st and has been having leg and hip problems this week. Here is the link if you can help. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/662131/

Hello all,
I have seen the Paw paw talked about some what and I have a good firend whom runs a small nursery and is able to get them. are they for the butterflies or humans and what kind of Paw Paw should I ask her to get? Also I like to get some stuff for the humming birds next spring anyone have any good thoughts what would treat them?
Thank You
Jesse
Deb I have been talking to you so much today, I didnt know I put my address on the thread! You had me going ...I dont know where I was... lol
LOL Sylvia,
We had a nice chat today, Hope you are drinking lots of water. Take care of yourself, you'll probably last longer than ya think. LOL
Judy started a new thread and we have been posting in Thread 2 on Butterfly Host plants.. This one has too many post, whew!
I need some experienced BFers to come help me out, actually. Keeping focus there is not as simple as it looks.
Deb - What is the great garlic bread recipe to go with my lasagne? Curios minds want to know! :-)
Let's all continue over here:

See yas there!
I've been gardening for butterflies for a couple of years.
Will the exchange be SASE if one is offering seeds but does not need an exchange?
Wish I'd read this thread before as I've just passed on oodles of butterfly and fragrant seeds to a fellow gardener, hoping she would find takers for them!
I may still have some Aristolochia Gibertii seeds, but I'll have to check this. Passiflora...Corky Vine's seeds are frequently ripening. .(Gulf Fritteries) Cassia Alata's seeds are ripeing right now. (Sulphurs)
Just a point about attaching trellis to fences. My neighbour attached a series of trellises to my long fence. With the weight of his mature huge vines and hurricane Wilma's strength my fence did not stand a chance to hold up. The fence on the other side had no vines attached and was not demolished.
Hi, bedouin-- Good to hear from you.
Our first trading thread got too long so we moved the discussion on to http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/661953/
Hopefully the trading will be 'ongoing' through the year as seeds are needed.
And yes, there are takers for seed in exchange for stamps, etc. The idea is, as you are thinking, to get the extra seeds out where they might be used for the BFs.
Will you copy and paste your post over there so others will see it? I am sure there will be some interest.
Thanks. t.
LOL well, now I see you did that! thanks. t.
