Hi, I am interested in your Variegated Solomon's Seal Pink Turtlehead (Chelone obliqua) Besides what is on my trade list I also have mixed hyacinths & hyacinth grapes muscari. Please take a look and let me know. Faye!

Hi Tracy I would love all 4 fans of your Iris versicolor (Northern Blue Flag - U.S. native) - 4 fans - a purple/blue water iris with some white and gold, 36" tall and very vigorous, blooms in early summer, full sun/part shade. I have a great variety of ferns that I would be more than willing to trade. Jean

I would love to trade with you as well! I actually dont keep my list up to date at the moment, I wanted to know if the different varieties of violets are edible, I have jerusalem artichoke rhizomes i harvested this month plus sweet italian basil also harvested from my garden, the one you use for caprisi salads, yum, I'll email you a more detailed list. for medicinal and culinary herbs like white sage that one came from my school garden as well as vine plants like passiflora incarnata I am interested in your, Solomon's Seal - Polyonatum multiflorum, Skirret, Yarrow, Red, Basil 'Lettuce Leaf' (if the violet varieties are edible i would love some of those as well!) - Stephanie

I think that Kwoods is pointing out that it seems difficult to convince the OP one way or the other on the depth. This is a huge project to tackle if you don't have any previous experience. I think that njb had a good idea to start with plants in a kiddy pool. If I were going to do this I know I would want to know everything I could before I started. I went through all kinds of angst when I was building my little bog. I can't imagine what it would be like if I were trying to build a complicated pond and marsh that required $700 worth of liner and the removal of 40 tons of soil. I'd probably ask local professional pond builders for opinions. Yikes.
