Plantbug, I will gladly bring the plants you requested. The dwarf iris sounds beautiful and I looked at your trade list on your members page,do you have any ferns you could trade? I know it is late. To warn you the bee balm is not a huge bunch,which is strange since it spreads like wild fire. Truth be told I thought I had pulled it all up,but these little guys are determined,so anyway.As I said I will gladly bring the plants you requested.looking forward to meeting everyone, Beth

Thanks everyone for coming!! Great crowd and good food. Sorry everyone had to endure my sniffly allergy melt down - I'd been fine all season but wouldn't you know the day of the swap I am practically bed ridden. It's a good thing no one showed up with privet or I would have shown you what a crazy man on hay fever drugs looks like (privet is my number one allergen). I just wish I could stop sneezing long enough to really embarrass Livian on her birthday. I did my usual reverse of binge and purge. Came to swap planning on giving it all away and taking NOTHING back home only to carry home MORE than I brought. I had planned on saying a few words about Miguel and how his clematis knowledge will be missed on these forums but I lost track of time during the chaos that is our swap. In the future I think I will plan on leading a caravan over to Plant Delights after the swap, since I used to work there, know the back road way to get there easily and know that they could use the business. I also think I should post my cell phone number so that last minute emergencies can be better communicated. Glad everyone came and swapped. Glad that once again the quality of plants surpassed expectations. Glad little Connor was smart enough to wander over to the playground nearby. I can't wait til the next one.

Stargazer Lily: Thanks for hosting the swap in your beautiful yard. It was a wonderful afternoon. Thanks for all the plants, JJ, Li and Stargazer. Tomorrow, Susan and I will be planting at the traffic bulges. If any of you are in the UBC area, do drive by the garden/traffic bulges at 8th Avenue & TRimble. We try to keep these beds in bloom for as long as possible. KarinL: I just saw your request for Pat Feary. I will save a tuber for you for the spring swap. Sorry I missed your message.
