The Seed Exchange

HAVE: Unusual Commercial Seeds for 2008

16 years ago

I got these from a British company and that exchange rate is a killer this year. So I will need something nice in exchange for the following:

dictamnus albus, mixed types

fuchsia, mixed hybrids

gentiana kochiana

gerbera jamesonii, giant flowered hybrids

hibiscus storkii

jasminum fruticans

I also have quite a few other unusual items on my list at the following link. If interested, you can e-mail me from my member page. (Post here to let me know that you are doing so, however, since some GardenWeb e-mails don't seem to be getting through.) Thanks!

I would be really interested in the Abutilon and Verbascum. I grow Begonia grandis, but I'm not sure if I still have seeds from them or not.

The seeds are starting to arrive at their destinations, so everyone, keep their eyes peeled. I mentioned already to someone, but thought I should make a general mention, that many of these seeds are somewhat, to very challenging to germinate. Sunflowers are cheap, easy to find, and popular for a reason (super easy to grow), and we were exchanging unusual seeds. Please be sure to look up any/all of the seeds you received that you received that you are unfamiliar with, so that you can have the best chance at success (some good sites for germination info: backyard gardener and Tom Clothier's site). Even with this knowledge, not everyone will be successful with everything. It took me four tries at germinating Actaea before I had any success, and I've been growing from seed for twenty years, so I (usually) know what I'm doing :-) But the theory is that you learn as much from your failures as from your successes, and where you're successful, you'll have some interesting plants for next to nothing :-) Happy gardening everyone!

Check it out I would love to do a trade for the Hibiscus Storkii and Fuschia Hybrids (is that a mix or seperate packs of seeds for each hybrid?) Please email me back at Acacius48@aol.com

Just posted in the VA forum that I am looking for someone who is growing dictamnus and would appreciate some back up seed if my three little inch high plants don't make it through the winter.

I know you have written about saffron. It grows beautifully here. Can it be grown as far north as PA? I was told that the bulbs were brought to Cornwall even before the crusades, even before the Roman occupation, when the early Phoenicians traded them for tin, one of the metals needed to produce bronze.

The other special trade I have is sprouted paeonia rockii seed which I have been hoping to trade for fen dan bai. Let me know if you are interested in either.
