I can't speak for anyone else on the forum, but personally, I would never even make an order online and try to take shipment of plants at this time of year. We are having an extended heat wave this year too, which makes it worse. I wouldn't risk newly dug plants traveling the country in boxes in this heat. And there is a forum for Plant Trades where you would find more responses, I would guess.

It's actually warmer up north than down here lately. Unfortunately our plants don't mesh into a decent trade, I have the things you mention that I want and have very few shade plants in abundance or I'd be into it. Good luck, that's a good list.

In the top section "seeds I have to trade" I put the date there, so people can know how current the list is. That might help you out.

Do you mind if I ask about your Talinum? How long have you had it? I find that I'm cutting the whole thing back about once a month. After a flush of stalks starts making the seed balls, it stops, and those long things are flopping all over the place. As soon as I cut them, new ones start coming up fast. Needs some elbow room, this plant. I love seeing the little flowers "floating in mid-air" when I look out the window though. Have to be careful where I throw the cuttings too, they can root easily. It's really unusual and fun.

Have Hardy Perennials - Want Strawberries/Shade plants

Thanks for letting me know. I got it fixed. No whites or yellow should be easy as 95% of my daylilies are other than white or yellow. Wanted to know if your strawberries are everbearing or June Bearing? Also need to let you know that my daylilies are mostly single fans. I purchased seed of extremely expensive Daylilies and started hybridizing. All my daylilies will have the name of one parent and some will have name of both parents. I have a few named varieties, but got rid of most of them because honestly my seedlings were much better.

I have Italian alum and hardy cyclamen. Both will grow under trees. The alum can be invasive here but shouldn't be in your climate. These are both fall foliage plants. The cyclamen will bloom in fall and is a pink bloom.
