Thanks Anita! Thanks everyone! Seeds arrived today - Anita was right - what a great selection!

Thanks Anita for hosting this. I suppose I will receive the seeds in about a week. I can't hardly wait to have them.
Will let you know when the've arrived.

Glad you enjoyed them!

I hope they get to you ok-I had to fill out customs forms and indicate what was inside.

I am STILL collecting seeds.... man I am a slacker this year

I am bummed out that I wasn't ready

onewish, you may want to check out the Piggy Swap that is about to start. The discussion is going on in the Cottage Gardening forum, but a post will be made here about it when it starts (in the next few days). The deadline for the host to receive seeds from you is December 20. Those of us who can, are sending extra seeds for hurricane victims as well (any of whom can join-no limit, and send no seeds). There's a lot of auction-like chat "I've got a few of these", and "put my name on them", and "anyone have....?", and "Oh, I do have 20 and I'll give ya half"...on and on.

That goes for all of you, there are still openings :-)

I don't think I could keep up with those cottage garden piggy swaps! They look like a lot of fun, though.

My seeds showed up Saturday, I forgot to post and say thanks everyone, especially Anita! Great plants - there are a few I don't know, going to look them up now.

I will check it out Gemini... thank you

I received my great seeds. (Mon) Thanks to all who participated. Thanks to our great hostess.

I received my seeds Monday also. Very nice selection. Thanks Anita.
Rose

Glad you are all happy. Hopefully you will join me in the spring for another swap!

If you're a seed junky, and just LOVE to swap.... take a peek at the Fall Frenzy Piggy Swap in the Seed Trading Forum.

I received the seeds today. Very fast.

WoooHoooooo!! I received my seeds today! Thanks everyone for the nice selection of seeds....looking forward to W/Sing! Thanks again, Anita for being our gracious hostess with the mostess! Will join you in the Spring swap! ;0)

I received my seeds today. Nice selection! I'm going to have a lot of fun WS'ing these. Thanks Anita for organizing this swap. You did a great job!

I'm glad everyone is getting their packages so quickly! Enjoy!

Sorry didn't have time to post yesterday, but my seeds came and I really am looking forward to planting each packet.

Thanks so much for some very interesting as well as really wanted seeds.

Just right, couldn't have come out any better even if I had requested them. I really like them all.

Janet

Thanks! And thanks again for the 'extra' gifts!

John and I went away for the weekend and when we came back my seeds were here...It was like a welcome home surprise..and I left the seeds I got. Thank you Anita...This was my first seed swap and I had so much fun making my seed envelopes. I hope all enjoyed the seeds I sent...Looking forward to planting all my seeds and seeing the surprises that come up.

Daves Garden is the best.

Liza

You are welcome!

Got my seeds yesterday! Great selection, only one thing I already have!

Thanks so much for doing this Anita,
Neal

I hope I didn't goof and send you something you sent me?

No, just one duplication of something from my seed stash, Cleome. But I love cleome, and have a huge area I'm sowing in wildflowers and reseeding annuals, so they'll still be used :-)

I got mine today! What fun, thank you for doing this and giving me the opportunity to participate. I'm looking forward to sowing them all. Anita, your cards were really cute too, good job!

:)

Yippy skippy, my seeds arrived! What a great selection; several things I haven't tried before. Thanks, Anita, for your wonderful efforts to inspire us winter-sowers. Now I have a reason to look forward to the onset of the cooold New England winter!

I am glad! Enjoy!

Ooooh, what a bummer! I participated in this swap last year (maybe spring?), and loved it. I can't believe I missed it! Sigh. At least on DG I know there will always be another swap down the line! Can't wait to start WSing! LOL

Are you still taking names> I would love to join. It will be my first wintersowing. I have many vegie and herb seeds. Can you wintersow herbs?

no-I am sorry-the swap is closed and finished a couple of weeks ago. I am sure you can sow herbs - give it a try.

Sorry I missed it . Ill try the herbs.

arejay -- yes you can WS herbs.

I do believe there is another swap going on currently in the Trade Forum.

I think it's called the Holiday Swap... lemme get the link.
