A terrible storm toppled two large stalks off my tree dahlia. I've been told you can start new plants with stem cuttings, but I have never tried (one of these giants is enough, lol). I can offer multiple stem pieces per trade. HIgh on my want list right now are rhiz. begonias with interesting leaf colors, Egret Flower(Habenaria radiata),or Worsleya procera, amaryllis, orchids, but will consider any heat loving shade plants. Tempt me. Lori Here is a link that might be useful: Dahlia Imperialis Double or Nothing

Clare, would you mind sharing where I could find tree dahlias? Thanks, Carla

Thank you so much Poochella :) One major drawback for the plant material (except the seeds) is that it requires special packaging and phytosanitary certificates involvement with customs (our customs are ruthless along with plenty of agonizing paperwork). Seeds do arrive safely here, I will write them an email, lets see what they have to say about it.. Regards, Izhar BTW I haven't seen you sharing your beauties here for this season..

Thanks, Judith; I've received your email. Unfortunately, your mail server keeps bouncing back my email message (mistakes it for spam, I think), so I'll have to reply to you in this forum. Would you please email me your postal address, to send the box/tube to? (Email it to my private email address, not to this forum, as I can receive your messages but can't reply to them privately.) I see from your GardenWeb page that you're looking for plumerias. I have a couple of pale pink/white plumeria cuttings that have been drying out for several weeks and are ready to plant out. They're nothing spectacular, but they are a bit different from the common yellow/white one. If you like, I can post these to you in a tube/box, paying postage one way; and you could post the dahlia cutting/s back to me in the same tube/box, paying postage from your end. Let me know what you'd prefer, as I'm perfectly happy with either option.
