Hi golfcartshop, Welcome to Garden Web. I thought you might like to know there is no email link on your member page, thus no way to email you. To set up your email, just go to the bottom on any page here, and click on Member Pages Then click on Edit your Personal Information, Page, and Preferences You will then probably be asked to login in again. Then check the box Allow other users to send you email via forms at our site. That will place a link on your member page. While there editing, you may want to fill in your state abbreviation, and garden zone. The both go in the one box marked for garden zone. Some members do not respond to trades posted if they have no idea what state the member is in. I for one much prefer to trade with members less than 400 miles away, as opposed to someone 2000 miles away. There is often a huge difference in postage, making it not worth while to trade. Happy Gardening and trading. Sue

I have a few Stapelia and Huernia segments I could trade. I'm just starting my Carrion flower/life buoy plant collection and would love to add Stapelia gigantea to my list Please write back if interested.

this is Pendula...i have (2) 5in pots of it. not huge plants, but they are not huge long plants anyway, they break segments easily but bloom frequently to. Heres what it looks like. Bloom, the plant has thin pencil thick type stems,very light green to almost a golden color, and it is in segments about pencil long,or less, VERY easy to root. I looked for my plant pic. cant find it, but i find segments off of them from time to time. I plant them up if i want to start a new plant. They are a smallish plant, a main center, like an octopus almost, and it sends out stems from the center and the segments grow loner, till they snap off from wind or getting hit by something the flowers are tiny and do hang downward. thats about it. No odor, and they look like tiny little bells. Hope that helps. Any pics of your plant?

Good morning, day or evening. My name is Brad Eadie and I am a cacti & succulent lover & experienced metal artist. I have been bitten by the cacti & succulent bug & am looking to grow my own. I am ordering a green house & will be using the green house to grow my cacti & succulents to their full & happy glory as well as use it as a drawing art studio & open it up to the public for education & live plant drawing studies. I've started some propagation but would like to do more. I am an active member in the New Bedford & surround townships art community & believe in proper education (both of plant keeping and "lower" animal keeping, I've recently started a program with hermit crab education, these little guys are sold with as much misinformation as cacti with the same tragic results). I will also be incorporating some into pieces of my art work (again the health & well being of the plant is number one & these pieces will help promote proper cacti care). I am a redsmith with some blacksmithing skills. Attached you will find pictures of my work. The reason for this post is to see if anyone would be interested in a trade of copper work for cacti cuttings, seeds or succulent leaves. Seeing how the green house is costing me a bit of money I wont be able to get the pots and the plants I need to get my idea into fruition. I do how ever have copper in my shop with few current orders and some extra time on my hands. I am a resourceful man & will be upcycling many items I have around the shop & that friends are donating into pots (only using materials safe for plants to grow in) as well s making the pots myself of extremely ornate art pieces. I am open to all trades but a few ones i would like are monkey tail cacti, rat tail cacti, cereus peruvianus, golden barrel, cholla, dragon fruit, el pedro, stapelia gigantea, mini or full saguaro and the ever delightful ming thing. That's just to name a few. If you have any other offers I'd be more then happy to trade, just naming a few I've become interested in. Chart below gives you a ball park of what I'm offering for in trade (all open to negotiations & we'd either pay for our own shipment costs or I'll split the difference on large shipments) small cuttings/ few succulent leaves/ non-rare seeds- brooch medium cuttings/ medium amount of succulent leaves/ rare seeds- 2 brooches/ custom brooch/ small wallmount large cuttings/ large amount of succulent leaves/ large amount of seeds- medium wall mount/ custom small wallmount/ 3 brooches large amount of rooted plants (any type)/large mix of marked seeds/ large amount of cuttings of large size- could range from large wallmount/ custom wallmount/ or even a weathervane (depending on the amount of which and size) obviously these trades can be mixed & matched aswell as worked with to make both parties happy These pieces retail starting at $35 and range up to $1,000+. If you or anyone you know is interested please let them know and contact me at weathervanest@gmail.com . Offers will be of a first come first serve nature. As you can see by the samples I do mainly do nautical themed pieces but I would happily make any sort of design. Looking forward to hearing from all you lovely, helpful & awesome people. -Brad Eadie Sampling of brooches Sampling of wallmounts: Sampling of weathervanes
