I'm whittling down my DVD and book libraries. Most of the DVDs are newer releases, like Failure to Launch (Matthew McConaughey, Two for the Money (Al Pacino), Flightplan, etc.
The many garden books are varied, from books on roses, bulbs, perennials, trees, western gardening, landscaping, design, and structures, etc.
If anyone is interested in trading, I'll list them all out.
I'm looking primarily for well rooted plants (not cuttings or seedlings please. They'll die quickly under my neglect). I need tough plants that don't need special attention. I would like to acquire more named daylilies, peonies, hydrangeas, helebores, hen and chicks, unusual sansverias, shade lovers and sun lovers, arum itallicum, named sedums, penstemon (other than Husker Red), agastache, etc. I have a whole new area I need to fill up with plants.
Also, I collect ranch style items and butterfly items for my gardens. The name of my place is the Butterfly Ranch, so I look for things for that theme.
Anyone interested?
CLOSED: HAVE LOTS OF NEW RELEASE DVDs AND GARDEN BOOKS
I'm looking for a book that tells me how to create mixed borders for foundation plantings/front-faces of buildings. I also have never seen Failure to Launch, so I'm game LOL. I have a pink butterfly bush, it's going into it's 2nd winter, still have the tag, it's called "Pink Profusion'. LMK if interested.
Hey There NancyAnn,

I still have lots of books and movies to trade. The movies are the original movies, not copies. And they come in their keepcases. All books and movies are in good to great shape.
If you are looking to trade dvd's for dvd's, let me know what titles you're looking for. I have a ton of them that need weeding out here, too!

Diane, I'll dmail you.
