I just finished potting up more plants this morning that I want to take along, had some special request. The ones that I'm concerned about not looking their best by Saturday is the rose campion and ther is one clustered bellflower plant. Maybe it will bounce back. How often do you use the MG Quick start on your transplants? Thanks for sharing that information. Glad I asked! I dug up some columbine seedlings this morning. Hope they look as good by Saturday as they did before I dug them up. They always seem so fragile. The only trouble with those seedlings is not knowing what color they will be. You know the seedlings will land anywhere; and you won't know what colors you have until it blooms. Boy, do they ever reseed! I love them though. They sure add color in the Springtime to the flowerbeds. Maybe the only way to be sure of what color is to plant the original seeds in a container? collect seeds from that container and repot in another container and label right away. Does that make sense?

Hi Susan, I am glad to hear you are still planning to attend- I have been 'taking notes' of everyone's wants- I have some winter sown herbs I can bring you- they are still tiny because they are still in the strofoam cups I started them in :)) I also have some nicotiana sylvestris volunteers coming up-(at least I am pretty sure that's what they are) I can bring one or two of those (I think there are 3 babies out there) this is the one that looks like a 'real' tobacco plant- gets big leaves, tall with the white hanging down tubular flowers-how does that sound? I am taking up some Hosta "Royal Standard" for Vicci, and you can have some too- I have garden balsam which does wonderful in shade- they are mixed volunters so I don't know what colors (I have several) they are- they are small, but will grow fast now with the rain and hot weather behind it- see you soon, Linda *by the airport*

Sounds fun, wish it were closer. A direct link to the thread... Here is a link that might be useful: Swap

It was hardly my intention to mislead anyone, and I apologize for having done so if anyone has, indeed, been misled. I had assumed that by identifying our swap as a 'NEW' swap that folks would realize that it is, well, new. If anyone remains confused, please note that this is an entirely different swap, meeting for the first time November 4th, and has no connection with "THE Middle TN Plant Swap" held on the Buffalo River. I will be coming to your swap October 21st, Jan, and we'd love to see you in Hendersonville in November. Anyway, we have set the date/time/place for our next organizational meeting. It will be held Tuesday, Ocotober 3rd at 5:15 pm at White House city park. Anyone who's interested is most welcome! Any questions, comments, concerns etc, you can either post a follow up to this forum or email our group at BloomingIdiotsPlantSwap@yahoo.com.
