Hi Debbie, would love to trade again if you would... sending you email. Bea

Hello, I would be interested in your blackberry lily seeds, are the from last season? I would like to trade for several hundred seeds, if you have them. I have a lot of rooted landscape scrubs and perennials. Have learned the art of gathering seeds. Let me know if we can work out something Thank you Tammy

I would be interested in San Marzano tomato seeds and lemon cucumber seeds. I have Old Kentucky tomato - an orange, beefsteak style tomato. I like the flavor of these and they grew very well this year. I have red Oxheart tomato - these are fleshy (meaty?) and did pretty well. Took a bit longer to mature. I also have some California Wonder pepper seeds. I cannot tell you about these particular ones because someone near and dear to me forgot to water my seedlings while I was on vacation and those all died this year. But, I have seeds from 2013. If you have any interest in these, I'd love to trade with you. -Matt

Plant some flowers and 'weeds' that will repel the bad guys and attract the good ones. For example, I'm waiting for a trade for tansy that repels ants. They not only invaded the house, but , I believe, they farm ants on my plants. Search for beneficial insects and companion plants. There is a great forum here on GW: Plant pests and diseases.
