Would like to trade for your coneflower, shasta daisy, siberian iris and/or blackberry lily; could I send you my list [have a bunch of heirloom tomatoes]? Doreen.

Hi there, I'd love some: BALSAM, Touch-Me-Nots - Mix Dusty Miller Silver Lace Impatiens Wedgewood Mix Basil Pistou Broccoli Waltham 29 Cauliflower Early Snowball A Sweet Banana Pepper Spinach Giant Noble Tomato Caspian Pink I have yellow hibiscus and white moonflower seeds. I can also send you a purple wisteria cutting in the bubble envy if you're interested. They can take up to 10 years for a bloom when growing from seed. Oh, and I have chocolate mint cuttings, but may be able to pull some fresh seeds today (I'll have to check when I get home today). Feel free to check my list for other things that might interest you. Thanks! Diana Here is a link that might be useful: Ollierose's Trade List

LOL... one word... CATNIP! Lots of it! I think I've contacted everyone that I needed to today. If not, someone drop me a note. We're forecast for severe thunderstorms today through tomorrow night, so my computer time may be limited. I don't like being on when there's lightening even though we have cable internet. Fran, please let me know ASAP whether you hear from Carrie. That will be the deciding factor in what I set up for Joan. By the way, Jamie emailed me and is still trying to get in touch with Kim. I let her know that officially, I'd dropped them from the swap, but if they complete it, both of them, and send me DCNs and post contents, it will have them clear for the group with the condition that they will have to send first in the next MNF swap they join. I felt this was the most fair way to deal with it, if they both complete the swap. I invite her to hang about and get to know folks and she's assured me that she will :) I'm very happy about that! Oh, and I called the company I ordered from and they're putting a rush on the order, and I found out that it's always best to call the order in and request a rush. Have a really nice conversation with the young lady I spoke with. We discussed my theme gardens and she's going to be checking into GW. She's interested in seeing my Gargoyle bed and Naughty Garden and I'd bet she'd be interested in seeing some of the other Goth type beds and any of the themed beds. She was really interested in the possibilities of those. I told her she'd need to check back in a couple months to see pics of mine since they're still pretty dormant at the moment and it will take some time for the kids and DH to get everything tended to, especially in the new beds that we just started working on. Anyway, she was a really sweet young lady and we had a nice conversation and she tried to see if there was more she could do to get my order here quickly. The rush was all she could do, but I should have my order here sometime late next week or early the following week. So I'll be able to have Nikki's box to mail out then. Everything else is ready and packed. Or ready to be packed :) Though the longer I have to wait to mail it off, the more seeds I find to tuck in ... for cushioning, ya know? Kathy
