Oh wow there are so many on list that I have wanted, I dont have that many seeds because I am new again due to a relocaton. But maybe there is something I have you might want or I can do sasbe. But it looks like you have everything already. I have a pack of 2 Bamboo Orchid stater plants that I would very much love to trade for a fan of your Daylily-Navy Blues.
Thanks Lisa

Hi, Barb - I am interested in:

Agrimony
Callicarpa americana
Cimicifuga racemosa (I grew one from seed, slow growing, hasn't flowered yet, and I'm moving...)
Desmodium canadense
Lobelia cardinalis, and
Ludwigia alternifolia (landscapers who tidied up my yard for selling house destroyed mine, waah...)

Please see if there's anything on my list this year you'd like, and let me know if you'd like to trade.

Thanks,

Kim

P.S. Your granddaughter is adorable!

Welcome to Garden Web! I thought you might like to know that there is no way to email you they way your preferences are set. I suggest you go to the bottom of any page here and click on 'Member Pages'. then Edit Preferences. Then using the drop down box, set it to show your email addy to Members only. then check the box to allow others to email you via the forms here at GW. That will place a link on your member page so folks can reach you. You might also want to (while you are there) fill in your gardening zone, and your state abbreviation. I for one (and some others too)prefer to trade some things with members that are 100 miles away, as opposed to 1000 or more. Often if I can't tell where someone is located, I just don't reply to threads started by traders. Happy gardening and trading! Sue

Vintage Native American (?) Jewelry Anyone?
Q
Comments (7)
Thanks for your feedback -- Linda - The necklace may have been dipped, since my mom was fond of silver dip... But there's some tarnish in the stamping grooves and on the back sides of the links. Nothing that looks like plating wearing off or peeling, so whatever metal it is, it looks full-depth. Maybe nickel silver? The metal color is very similar to some of my old sterling jewelry, but there is no sterling stamp. (Unless it was on the now-gone clasp.) I have looked very closely for markings. Unless it's practically worn off, there's nothing on the back, first or last links. Don't suppose they'd bury it in the middle? I'll see if good outdoor light reveals anything, but I doubt I'll be able to get better pictures. Is there something specific you's like to see LG? Something tells me this piece is older than the 1970's. 70's peices had a kind of hippie/druggie/earth shoes look that I remember well ;-) I'm with LazyGardens in thinking it looks '40's or 50's-ish -- which was probably why it took me so long to warm to the piece.

Native American Rug, LynnNM?
Q
Comments (4)
The rug is gorgeous and the credenza is beautiful. I imagine you measured it to ensure it fits into that fairly small space. I have to admit I would have hung it in the middle rather than to the right and would have chosen a skinny lamp with a smaller shade to give center stage to the rug. What I really loved was the feet with the cute socks in the second picture. I hope you don't mind my saying that the photographs distract from the rug. I would hang the rug lower and keep the space underneath fairly clear.

Hi Barb, I would be interested in the Cimicifuga racemosa. I have Eupatorium "Chocolate" just starting to bloom now which I see is on your wanted plant list. Or check out my list and see if there is anything else you might be interested in, and let me know.
