Looking for unusual plants want to trade?
sending you dmail :)
I hope to have rooted cuttings of a newly released, varigated, beauty berry called 'Duet'. It is from the NA. I will keep you in mind if they work out. Gene
Now that's something i'd be interested in.
let me know for sure if you get them rooted
geneivy, what is NA?
BrightStar, NA=National Arboretum. Sorry, I get carried away with the acronyms. Duet is listed in the plant files, I added it. They trial test and release to the public new plants from time to time. I have a 'Don Egolf' redbud and some 'Betsy Ross' lilacs from them also. Gene
What were you interested in of mine Gene?
Got any other unusuals?
kathy
Hi,
I bought some plants from you. How about dichorisandra pendula (weeping blue ginger), pink variegated lemon, pink powder puff, and different hibiscus? Here is one....
HUm, ! You did? Wow. What's that pink powder puff? I'd love to trade for the pink variegated lemon, i've been wanting one of those. What kind of hibiscus did you get any idea? besides the one in the photo it's very pretty.
I have the blue ginger though
oh wait a minute, Ithink that blue pendulous ginger is different from my regular blue ginger. isnt' it? I think it is.
Kathy, let me see how the 'Duet' comes out of dormancy. I have put your name in my trade list and will get back to you. I got these as unrooted cuttings from a researcher at the NA so I don't know how they are going to do. If they do anything like an American Beautyberry, I will have them coming out my ears. Gene
Sounds wonderful Gene.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
I got brug cuttings and a couple of other things from your classified ad, not hibiscus. Here is a pic of the weeping.....
and here is the powder puff...
I misunderstood your post, I remember you bought some plants from me. you mentioned up above you had some hibiscus varieties, was wondering which ones you had. What do you want in return for the ginger and pink lemon.
why don't you dmail me and let me know ok. thanks
Kathy,
I have Hedychium 'Tai Pink Profusion' - I'm looking for highly fragrant plants i.e. Orienpet Lilly Silk Road and Lilium regale etc.
I don't have many oriental lilies, cause they don't multiply for me. All I have to trade is that list above. Sorry
No worries - just thought I'd ask :)
I appreciate it, if I had something, I'd love to trade for that ginger.
I do have some double tuber roses LOL
My oriental lilies, just never seem to go far in multiplying so I don't have that many.
Tuberoses have a wonderful scent, don't they? Already have singles and doubles though. :( I'll put your name in my notes and if I see you listing something - I make sure to contact you.
Sounds great, I do love them, they smell so good....
This year, I hope to propagate some things that I have...but nothing at the moment, though..
The only thing that I can offer, if you would be interested, is that I have some seedlings of cornus mas. They vary in size. Mine is about to bloom this week. I will be taking photos of it, in case you wish to see mine.
If I think of something else, I will let you know. You have some really, really neat things.
Whew I had to look that up LOL cornelian cherry dog wood. sounds interesting. They grow into trees ha? seems so, I'll probably need to pass on this though.
I would love to trade with you. Please check my trade list to see if there is anything you are interested in.
Thanks! ☼
I'll check out your list, How did you get that little sun by your name, That's too cute.
You have Dmail. Also, see my trade list.
Nicole
I'd be interested in that lemon but I just received one in a trade.
