The Plant Exchange

Have: Roses( w/Pics) and a few others

15 years ago

Hi,

I have leftover rooted rose cuttings that need good homes before winter gets here. I have:

Bow Bells, English shrub(4){{gwi:74186}}

{{gwi:74188}}

Leontine Gervais, climbing rambler(2){{gwi:74189}}

{{gwi:74190}}

Long John Silver, monster climber(2){{gwi:74191}}

{{gwi:74192}}

Prairie Harvest, Buck shrub(2) The color changes depending on the weather.{{gwi:74193}}

{{gwi:74194}}

Belle de Crecy, Gallica-sucker dug earlier in the year(1){{gwi:74195}}

Hawkeye Belle, Buck shrub(1){{gwi:74196}}

Rose Glauca, species shrub-seedling dug from garden(1) This is a great landscape shrub for color and birds, but not a showy rose.

I also have a few perennials that are potted and ready to go like Heuchera 'Silver Scrolls. Please check my exchange page.

Please post a message here even if you only just write "Sending you an Email."

I am NOT sending roses for postage. Commoner perennials that I have like the Sundrops I will, but please don't ask for the roses.

Thanks,

Remy

Anyone have pics of koi pond w/roses?
Q

The Raccoon Factor: you build the pond with straight sides (no gradual slope into the water) and NO plant shelves. Raccoons like to wade into the water. With straight sides, they can't do that. Planting tallish plants completely around the edges of the pond also helps to keep predators at bay. Adequate depth (at least 3'--4' is better) also protects the fish (somewhat) from Herons. With depth you must also factor in safety for pets and children. As to bog filtration, that is best for a water garden with goldfish (unless the pond is very large, say over 10K gallons). This is because Koi are, honestly, poop machines. They are high-metabolism creatures that grow large and eat a lot to get there. They are dirty fish that produce a LOT of waste. Serious filtration is needed if you want to have more than 1 or 2 koi healthy for the long term. On the good side, I wash all my koi poop out of my filters onto my roses, and the roses are very, very happy about it. Free organic fertilizer. As I said before, plan, plan, research, and plan again. If there is a local koi club go to some meetings and see what is involved before doing anything. A water garden with goldies is just as restful and peaceful and beautiful as a koi pond with a lot less worry and work. Goldies are much, much less work. Lastly plan at least one if not more sitting areas right from the start in your pond planning and design. Many people leave that as an afterthought--and it's the most important thing! Why have a pond if you can't luxuriate there in comfort and enjoy it?

Mona, Thank you for the compliment :-) Will look forward to returning the compliment when your CE blooms! It is a wonderful flower, I'm more enamored every day. Regarding Divine: this tree is 3 years old now. It did bloom last year but this year's output is definitely "supersized" compared to last year--both the inflos and the individual flowers are much larger. Me likey :) Also, I noticed your question as to Thumbalina's scent. I find it quite attractive--I describe it as a fine-perfume smell. Mine is a new addition to my collection this season, but it's already a definite keeper in my book. Very unique tree, all the way around. Two thumbs up from this hobbyist. We talked Isaac in the other post :) Thanks again for the kind words, Mona. G

Great pictures of everything. I have a peony that was given to me 3 yr ago. It was given to me by one of the old Laotian lady's on the next block over. "You take, you grow, you like". I'm going to find out what it looks like this year. It's got about 1/2 dozen buds on it.

Few questions about my rose plant (with pics)
Q

I'm not an expert, and from your roof, I'm guessing you're in Europe somewhere so completely different growing conditions. However, I don't think that plant will ever do well in such a small pot. A rose needs a lot of root to support its top growth and flowers, and I don't think that's possible in its current situation. If that's staying in a pot permanently it needs at least 15gal or more! Hopefully, some pros will pipe in.

I would love a little bit of each... I had to leave all of mine behind when I moved. I loved my roses, and I have always had a hard time finding white ones... Do I have anything you may want or would you do it for postage?

Hi Remy,

I know you have tons of stuff, and a lot of things are not hardy for you that folks will likely offer.

If you happen to have any that are not spoken for, I would love any of them (except Belle de Crecy that you sent me before).

Might you be interested in some named varieties of irises?...either now or in the spring? I can provide names and pics of most. I will also probably have some different named daffs (you hopefully don't have) available once I get a bloom count on them this spring.

LMK...thanks. I will be away from the computer today and Tues, but will reply in time.

Molly,
Thanks! That is so sweet of you to say. In the spring(May,) I'm always looking for more tender things that you lucky southerners already have in abundance for my pots. So maybe we can trade then.

Cody,
I sent an email to you. If you didn't get it let me know.
