I have a few trades of a compact hardy Hibiscus (the flower, growing habit and foliage matches Luna Red). I lost the tag :( Here's the picture http://davesgarden.com/forums/fp.php?pid=2869084
It is compact 3'x3' and hardy to my zone with no winter protection. It also seems to be quite tolerant to dry conditions, I did not water it this summer and it bloomed profusely.
I am looking for light interesting heucheras or other fun shade perennials.
Hardy hibiscus for trade
Would you be interested in hosta? I have 'June' but it's fading away for the winter now.
If you are interested in trading for some small Japanese Painted Ferns I started from spores this summer they are apx 3-4 inches tall with 2-3 fronds per plant

According to the USDA, the plant hardiness index for Madison, WI is: 4b-5a

My lot is unusual too. It's wooded and slopes to the north at 10-40 degrees.
Most of it is heavily shielded by trees. I live literary in the "woods" that were left on
two lots when the neighborhood was built up 40 year ago. So I believe that
it maybe closer to 5a.
I will trade you something for a few of the seeds enya! Dmail me if you still have some and I will tell you what I have to trade.
I have some hardy hibiscus seeds, if anyone wants them send a d-mail. If you have something to trade nice, if not, not to worry. here's a pic one one kind.
