HAVE: plants

17 years ago

I have a bunch of plants available to trade. Because postage can get expensive I would prefer to make trades consisting of several plants (you take several of mine, I take several of yours). If you are local (Montreal), and are willing to meet in person, then I am willing to trade as many or as few as you want.

Most of these plants would have to be mailed in a box, but some are small and tough (i.e. - runners), and they may be mailable in a padded envelope (with a bit of additional protection). I will only mail boxes of plants within Ontario and Quebec (gets too expensive otherwise), but I will mail padded envelopes to the rest of Canada.

I'm not looking for anything in particular (except some climbing Explorer roses). Make me an offer. If I don't have it, and I think I can grow it, I will consider it. Nothing that get huge (no trees or large shrubs)- I have a small space. :-)

They haven't flowered yet - too young. One was thinking about it, but the flowers aborted. Since they're all from hybrids I have no idea what they will look like - it's kind of a surprise :-)

The above is correct. Please make sure the soil does not completely dry out. Water needs depend on several variables, including what & how much medium they're in, type of pot, how much direct sunlight they're receiving, climate, etc. I'm relatively new to adeniums and would like to share my experiences. I hope you don't mind. I have also read the bottom water / top water recommendation. My experience is that it makes sense when seedlings are small ... You don't want to inadvertently disturb seeds / seedlings by uprooting them. I take a handful of water and slowly release it onto the soil when the seedlings are under 3 weeks. Everyone has their own method ... Whatever works! As a rule of thumb, I try to water only on sunny days and skip watering when skies are overcast. This allows plants to dry back a little bit and not remain overly wet. Also, never wet a plant while it's under full sun or it can get scorched. I'm coddling my babies and keep them on a tray, bringing them in whenever it's going to rain. Over the course of 3 month, I have sown 25 seedlings. Since I'm growing small scale, I use egg cartons because the individual cells allow me to keep track of when each seed germinated. Of course, I make drainage holes at the bottom of each cell. I also tape up the side holes & use the lid as a drip tray. At about three weeks old I transferred the seedlings into Activia/Light & Fit yogurt cups (w/drainage holes), which are a perfect height for deep root formation. I first fill each cup with soil & fully water the pot. Then I use a plastic fork to lift out the seedling with its surrounding soil, fill in surrounding area, and water in. Careful not to plant seedling deeper than it originally was. I also just transferred three 3-month-olds into 4 inch pots. I found that keeping everything in direct sunlight is best (for my climate). Seedlings grow fatter / bigger, and seeds germinate better. I also begin fertilizing seedlings weekly weakly at three weeks of age. Hope you find this information helpful.

Hi Bonniepunch,

Me again. You said you are looking for something unusual. I can send you a small rooted cutting of Iochroma and a small rooted cutting of Senecio Confusis (both of these are tropical so would have to come inside for the winter. I also have a small rooted cutting of Rehmannia (Chinese Foxglove)very pretty pink flower I also have ajuga "Chocolate Soldier" or a piece of a spotted Heuchera ( cant think of the name at the moment) or Creeping Jenny ( bright lemon lime color ) I also could send a rooted piece of Violet "Freckles" . I have Chinese Sedum or Daylily Kwanza Flora Plena ( gorgeous triple bloom) and I also have a small rooted piece of varigated Artemisia .

Just so you know , the cuttings are small Iochroma is about 3 inches tall, Rehmannia about 2 , and the Senecio ( because it is a vine ) about 6 inches long. This is off the top of my head. I also have canna but some of the unusual ones such as Tropicanna which has red and yellow and green striped leaves . I could send pieces of these along later in the season . I also have a small clivia (orange flower) that I could send.

I am interested in your -Bird of Paradise Tree and daylily seedlings ....if any of this interests you , email me , lets see what we can work out
