WANTED: Garden buddies in Dallas area

10 years ago

Hi!
I would greatly appreciate anyone who has sun perennials to share. We moved last year and I had to leave my garden behind. I have to start afresh from scratch at the new home.
If you have any day lilies, iris, clematis, hardy hibiscus, dwarf cannas, peonies or such that you need to divide, please keep me in mind. I am obsessed with variegated and or dark leaved plants.
I don't have much to trade yet ..will be happy to find something.

Thank you in advance'

So I went by Lowes today and saw a couple of Hibiscus I could't live without. They are 2 small plants, but they were $4 each. They are a bright fuscia color. I didn't know Hibiscus was such a pretty flower....so much to learn! So I brought them home. I should of bought some pots too, but afraid hubby will notice a major charge on the debit card. LOL I figure if I keep frequent low charges, they aren't as alarming...LMAO! Yes, I am planning on attending the plant swap. I do need to print up the directions and all. As far as Salvia goes, not sure what kind I have, I'll have to pull up the tag and read it when I get home. I didn't put the seeds far in the dirt. I just sprinkled the seeds on top of the soil and put about 1/8 of an inch of soil spread on top. So they are very lightly in there. Hopefully they'll still be okay. Ooo, yes, I looked up the pics of the Salvia, and I like. And I'll have to look up what the Texas Star Hibiscus looks like, but I know I'll probably like those too if I like the ones I bought already. Thanks so much for your help! I can't tell you how much it's appreciated!
