The Seed Exchange

Wanted: Hosta Seeds

15 years ago

I would love to add some blue/green, lime green, green/white hostas to my back yard under the oak trees. What would it take to trade for hostas seeds? Will gladly take a peak in my seed stash for you if you let me know what you are interested in. I don't have a lot listed on my tradelist right now so am thinking I will have to dig in my stash to get hostas. PLMK.

Best to you,

Hi Quiltingfox,
I have red canna seeds I would be happy to send you, if you want to email me your name and address. They have germinated for me at 100%. I don't have anything green, and don't know of any blue cannas. There are white ones, which I am presently trying to sprout from seeds I bought online, but only one in five has sprouted so far. They are tough.
You sure have a long want list! I wish I had some of those plants to give you.

Sandra,

I can send some hosta seeds to you. They will not come true though. I have big daddy hosta seed and blue umbrella seed. I think I still have your addy. My big dady gave me a chartrues color last year from seed. Go figure on that one...It is pretty though......
