If you want to swap I live in: United States My zone is: Z8 TX My favorite forum 1 is Seed Exchange. My favorite forum 2 is Plant Exchange. First registered on August 14,2003.
I am a beginner gardener but am doing pretty well according to my husband, Matthew. I had a gardenful of plants but then we had to move last year. I had to uproot all my plants because owner wanted no part of them and so I took great care in potting them up. It took three full truckloads in order to transfer. When I did, it was only to find that the soil here was impossible to plant. I can t dig and inch without hitting rock. I still dug and took rocks out and, after very frustrating digging and trying to amend the soil, I finally planted all of my plants back. I did all this only to find that out of three truckloads only 1/8 of a truckload made it. The rest didn t like the soil. Caliche practically. Anyway, I m starting ALL over only this time I m using the Lasagna gardening technique and the rest I built containers for them. So any plants are welcomed. This year I m concentrating on Herbs and Perennials. Hopefully by next year I ll have more seeds to trade. Besides I get great help from my DH and Furball, our cat of 3 years. He likes to help me in the garden digging up and playing Jungle Peek-a-boo. I suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I have only 6 good days out of a month at most. I do however, get all my trades out on time and ALWAYS in bubble envelope or Priority Mail box WITH Delivery Confirmation so that we can re-route it if it should get lost. I ask for the same courtesy in return when trading with me MINUS the Delivery Confirmation of course. That is totally up to you. I m happy to still be here though. Thank-you.
