We had a great time! Joe-your crinums are, from left to right Hymenocallis-giant spider lily, may go dormant in your area. Ellen Boussant (not sure on the spelling)-deep pink trumpet shaped flowers Crinum americanum-native, goes dormant, spreads by runners, white, pink-tinged open spider type flowers. And here's a link to the rose I can never remember the name of and brought cuttings. Mine is much more purple than the pics. Tally HO! Here is a link that might be useful: Veilchenblau

Hi I'm looking for pitaya cactus and a sweet lime tree also called at times a Palestine sweet lime or "Lima dulce". I have an a wide variety of plants to trade or am willing to pay a fair price your choice contact me at arstg62@aol.com thanks-Araceli

Yes, that must have been it, Omar. It was pixies playing tricks on us or else it was me who was somewhat "pixilated' after all the talking and trading ... LOL I have a question: someone brought a jar for the door prize table containing something brown that looked like preserves of some kind, but it had a picture of a cleaning woman on it. I asked the contributor and she told me that if was for cleaning your hands after gardening and contained brown sugar. I'm fascinated, but can't remember what else the cleaning compound contained. Anybody remember who brought it and what else it contained besides brown sugar? The dates for both SAPS next year will be announced by Lorelei soon ... :-)

About eight weeks out I'll set up a thread for exchanges so everyone can check in and discuss the swap. There are very few rules because the trades take place person to person. Otherwise we post a few basic reminders at swap time.
