Good deal! GreenthumbinKC is also interested (posted on the Midwest forum)....I hope we can get a few members to make it a great swap... I should have quite a few left overs from winter sowing...and other miscellaneous plants... I don't really have a date in mind ...maybe June...possibly on a Sunday? What are your thoughts?

I live about 50 miles North of K.C. but would definitely be interested in a plant swap. I only have a couple of weekends spoken for so far so hopefully you won't pick those dates!! Let me know when you get all the details ironed out...I check this forum regularly, but would prefer emails about plant swapping details. Would be nice to have a forum just for people to sign up and let everyone know what they have and what they're looking for. I've been to several, and it helps to pre-trade. Look forward to seeing all of you......Jay drippingsprings@unitedwb.coop

Oh, rats! I missed this one - that's what I get for letting my new motorcycle obsession overtake my planty obsession, lol. :-\ Would have been a straight shot up the highway to Oak Grove, too! Dang... Anyway, I have a couple of mystery short daylilies needing a home that I've posted in the Exchanges if anybody locally is interested, would really like to trade for a solid deep red daylily that I'm seeing bloom right now, or a Red Ribbons spider daylily. Webkat, I sure wish I'd been to the swap - sounds like it was great! I still have stuff I haven't put in the ground yet, and keep finding purple ruffles basil that I am still freecycling that I sure could have brought in, along with hopi red dye amaranth seedlings, lol. Please email me next year for it, okay? I don't frequent all the boards much, but email I *can* remember to check. :-) Terri

Marlene, we missed you last year, hopefully we will see you this year. I do remember the talk about that plant and how you did get it. Glad to hear it is doing so well for you now. Leira, doing a good job with "the, one not so little now." Sounds like she will turn into a real little gardener and she needs her own special plant just for herself to water. Got it for you too, maybe even 2 little tiny plants for her to call her own. start her off now, save the seeds from them every year and she will have those plants for years to come. So you got to come and bring her along with you. wispfox, looking forward to seeing you again this year, did you every have that vine you thought might be a morning glory bloom and get it identified? s_angel0, so glad to see you posting to the thread and plan on coming to the swap this year. I had hoped to hear from you and see you at the swap. Don't worry about not having plants, we will fill you up to start off with, just bring along some goodies for us will be fine. In return, you get the plants and seedlings to take home with you. suzieque, Welcome and no, you are not to new to attend. No one is ever too new to attend, that's how you really learn about gardening. Talking to other gardeners and hearing what has and hasn't worked for someone else is the best learning experience. Nurseries can tell you some things, but they are working from the perfect environment to grow things. Gardeners, on the other hand, are doing things from experience in a "real garden" not perfection in growing environments. We live the real thing. Besides, you are an experienced gardeners dream come true, a novice that we can get hooked on "our love of gardening" and do it with fun, swap plants, give away seedlings and do it with good company from each other, good food and just plain relaxation and fun. Just come on and join us, we will load up your car with all kinds of good stuff for the garden, just be prepared to do lots of digging in your gardens. wish I could help you out, wisfox, but I don't have any of those plants. If any has some, would love a couple of divisions of Gaillardia Arizona Sun. Fran
