The Plant Exchange

WANTED: Wanted: Succulents For Postage

11 years ago

I am wanting to get started in succulent planting, but yet have nothing to trade in this area. I am willing however to pay the postage. Once i get started i plan to share with the rest of this community. Looking for succulent cuttings or seeds that will survive the climate of Idaho. We get some cold winters here and it snows. Summers are always nice though.

I am looking for variety's of:
Sempervivum
Echeveria
Sedum

or anything related to these types of hardy plants. I like all kinds because there all unique. I had a panda one but it died. Not sure because of the climate or i given it to much sun.

I'll be happy for anything related really to get started.

Perhaps you can find something to offer in trade.
Per the instructions at the bottom of this page:
"The exchanges were created to facilitate the arranging of trades of plants and seeds between members. Please do not use them to solicit donations, ask for free plants or seeds, or ask for items in exchange for postage. All requests must be in the context of arranging a trade. If you have nothing to offer at this time, please wait until you do."

Pindo Palms grow EVERYWHERE here in Florida - which Palm are you looking for? Do a google search and find which ones you are wanting, then post the names. It will cost you a fortune for postage - they are very heavy.

FYI, although you might get lucky, people generally don't trade plants for seeds because plants usually cost more, both in worth and also to ship.

Yes, it was easy. I only bought 2 or 3 corms from the market, planted them in a pot and put it inside my fish pond. No need to water nor fertilize. The harvest was disappointing. I got about 8 to 10 corme. But, they're small - about 1/4 of the size of the original corms. Could be because they were in a small pot. It was a fun experiment. One study used sand instead of soil and got good results. If you grow them in a fish pond, there is no need to fertilizer. Be sure to give them space to grow if you want to have good harvest.

Hello. I hope I'm not breaking any rules, but I am interested in cuttings people may be otherwise tossing. I don't have any trades. I'll gladly pay for your postage and packing materials. I'm especially interested in succulents. They would have to be plants that can be grown indoors because I live in an apartment. Thanks. Amanda
