THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! This year we had 112 people sign in and...well... way to many plants to count! :-) Also a GIANT thank you for helping us go green. We really appreciate it. We saw many "newbies" and many "old" friends a combination that made a highly successful swap with less then 10, yes 10 left over plants! We sincerely hope all of you had as good of time as we did. If there are any suggestions for improvements or constructive criticism please let us know either by PM or here. Thank you again to Beverly Nelson Comer and Mimi Ninde the two ladies who started it all and then graciously passed the "shovel" to us.

Hi Everyone, I am trying to get names of anyone who is interested in attending my plant swap next spring. It will be in late June/early July. I live in the Fingerlakes region, near Seneca Lake between Watkins Glen and Dundee. I hosted a swap in 2003 and we had a wonderful time, so thought I would do it again. If you are interested please e-mail me and I will be glad to send you the exact date and all other info a little closer to the time. I am just trying to get an idea of how many might be attending. Feel free to "bring a friend" if they want me to send them the info, just include their e-mail as well. thanks, juspeachy

Habitual lurker here. Anyone going to this? I live near this zoo and would love to go and swap some plants with other members.

Hi phylrae, I live near Binghamton. I have some daylilies, a lot to some people (75+), but a pittance to "serious" collectors. I would love to trade in the spring. Most of what I have is on my exchange page, but that list needs to be updated. I don't have many spiders ('Stoplight' and 'Lady Neva' and 'Twiggy' come to mind right away - 'Lady Neva' is HUGE, and gorgeous), and only a few UFs, but I have some real BOLD ones if you're interested. Listing favorites is kind of like asking which child I love best, but I have some I never get tired of seeing: 'Night Beacon,' 'Bright Sunset,' 'Ida Miles,' 'Green Eyed Pat,' 'Winter Chill,' 'Dallas Star,' and I could go on and on. GEP was amazing this past year. Laurel
