WANTED: 2012 Raleigh Fall Swap
Comments (8)I'm planning to attend the swap & looking forward to seeing everyone! Would anyone be interested in a Curry Leaf Tree (Murraya koenigii)? It's a sensitive plant, but the leaves are great for cooking. Ralph, I'd love to try Shell Ginger again! Thanks. Jeri...See MoreWANTED: Raleigh Fall Swap & Picnic 2013
Comments (150)casalester, the lady fern makes a nice clump and is easy. spleenwort does make a clump but it's small- like maybe 8" when full grown, so i doubt you'll get much coverage. It is evergreen, though. your choice. lisianthuslover, my bad. i just assumed b/c you'd seen jeri's rose... i do recall digging alstromeria this spring. It was a bit frantic, though at the swap. be nice to put a face to a name. i do have some ornamental oregano, can get you some. Carla, yes, i remember now! Super cute. Sure, swing by afterwards and get a branch. but you can have a pot, too- i have several. :) by the time you move it might be to a whole 2'! LOL yes, dogridge, i have plenty of pawpaws. Your name is on one! :)...See MoreWANTED: Trade List for Raleigh Fall Swap
Comments (25)I don't want anything. I have way too much already but I do plan on bringing: a few seedling bananas (the Musa velutina seeds tophersmith brought a year or so ago), they are supposed to be hardy but I wouldn't risk it on their first year and I believe everyone protects them with cages filled with dry leaves to get them through the winter. These are 2010 sprouts, maybe a foot or so tall in like 2 gallon pots. I also have a bunch of the side shoots of Alocasia 'Portadora'. They are usually winter hardy but plenty of people lost theirs this last winter. My big mama died but sent out a million pups. Various sizes, well rooted. I wouldn't risk them outdoors this winter but hey! they're free. I have a few seedling Lychee trees. These are totally tropical so they must stay potted and brought inside each winter but they make pretty trees; they may actually set fruit in like 15 years. I have a few hardy, native, Lobelia cardinalis - Cardinal Flower - they don't seem ready to bloom this year but they are big enough and should bloom next year. Same thing with Penstemon 'Husker Red'. I will be bringing some rooted shoots of Okinawa Purple Sweet Potato. Everyone says these are super tropical and tender but they act like regular sweet potatoes to me. I plan on bringing more of them to next springs swap (if I can keep them alive all winter indoors) but I only have so much space. So if you want to grow them and have a way to keep them warn over the winter take one now just to be safe. Easy to root and share with friends. (One of them is for Judy unless she wants to wait til next spring) Topher - I have a lavender for you but I don't remember which one it is. I grew it from seed and lost the labels on this group. They all grew fast and are pretty big for a first year seedling but so far none of them has bloomed. I tried to dig up a blue fescue for you but it died. I usually grow them from seed and they are very easy. I will be sowing more of them this winter so I will have some next spring. I am probably the person with the red epiphyllum you're talking about. Rootdigger brought some red and some white cuttings to a swap a million years ago. I got one of each. The red one grew into a normal sized plant and every year it blooms its head off (sometimes twice or three times each year, often with 18 flowers at one time). I have rooted some and given them back to Rooty since it seems to bloom more than the original but I don't have any rooted now. I will eventually. All of my epi's struggled in this years heat, they all look like cr@p....See MoreTrade list / wish list/ giveaway list, for Raleigh fall swap 2017
Comments (416)Am so excited to have drupes on the new Edgeworthia papyrifera that I got this spring. If I can catch them at the right stage of ripe and then get them to germinate ~a year from now, it will probably only be another decade before flowering. So why am I so excited? I don't know but have decided to just enjoy the moment....See MoreVlad Pambucol
