Garden Exchange

wanted: have: mixed variety iris bulbs (mostly bearded)

14 years ago

So heres the thing. We bought our house 7 years ago. I believe at one point in time a nice older lady lived there and was an avid gardener. Up until this spring I had no interest in keeping up with the flowerbeds and they have all taken over. For some reason now... I have a strong desire in gardening and am fully enjoying myself. So I'm tackling the largest Iris bed I have ever seen. I like irises but there are just too many. I have LOTS.

The only problem I have is that I don't know the variety. I can describe the colors but because they are mixed in together I have no idea which bulb is which.

They are Purple, Yellow, and Purple/beige tu-tone bearded irises. So 3 varieties. I have tried searching online to pinpoint the type but have had no luck.

I am interested in Perennials, Houseplants, Seeds, and Greenhouse supplies. Just let me know what you have for exchange. Shoot me an email.

Thanks!

WANTED: Tall Bearded Iris Trade

Here's one of the Tall Bearded Iris I will be dividing this Fall (or maybe sooner). I am interested in making a very simple trade. I'm new at this so one or two rhizomes is all I want to trade with anyone I'm trading for the first time. I'm hoping someone has a Tall Bearded Iris in pink in whom I can trade with. But other colors can be offered also. TBI's are the only plant I'm interested in trading at this time. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area.

I would love to trade for some of your bearded irises. I have pathos cuttings, geranium cuttings and plants, and several types of vegetable seeds. Please let me know if you're interested. I will have lots of hollyhock seeds later in the summer, after they bloom.

My email is balletstef@att.net. I'm sorry, but I can't seem to change my email address on Gardenweb.

Thanks,
Stephenie
