I would love to have some of your Betony to cure my constant headaches. I don't have anything on your want list. Would you be interested in any of the following that I do have? Feverfew, catnip or Holy Basil?

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

Hi Kate, I'm a bit late - wondered if you might still be interested in a trade? I have several from your want list and feel free to take a look at my seed exchange list to see if there is anything else. Hopefully you can find several others that would be interesting to you. Here is what I have that matches your wants: Campanula thyrsioides (From Trade) Castilleja integrifolia Chelone glabra Clematis serratifolia (Trade) Dianthus deltoides 'Nelli' 2005 seed - tested great 07 Delphinum occidentale Eryngium giganteum 'Silver Ghost' (from Trade) Pedicularis crenulata Veronica incana I didn't go over your exchange list very thoroughly. Thought I'd wait and see if you were still trading and if so how many you could find on my page (I can add more or pare down to match), but at a glance I would be interested in at least the following: Aconitum Ivorine Cimicifuga simplex 'James Compton' Clematis 'Alionuska' Clematis integrifolia rosea 2006 Clematis texensis 'Gravetye Beauty' Delphinium tricorne Hosta, Streaked Breeders Lysimachia atropurpurea 'Beaujolais' Oenothera minima Eremerus himalaiacus Please let me me know. My email is plantaholics @ bellsouth.net (just take out the spaces) in case GW doesn't put it in again. Best wishes, Jase Connor PS: Thanks again for the wonderful seed you sent me for Christmas!

pkponder Maybe mine are too deep in the water. The rhizomes are about 4-6 inches below the surface. It's mainly just the tips, about 2 inches, of the leaves that turn brown, like all of them. It's on a cinderblock already, but maybe I need to put something else under it to raise it up a bit more. Can't hurt to try. One more question, whats a good media to use for repoting pond plants? I know both of mine came with the "sludge" type stuff in the pots but I don't recall seeing that type for sale anywhere. Any places around Ft. Worth that sell it? Or just the technical name of it so I can google around. Or maybe there's something better to use? Thanks again, Phil
