Comments (0)We are having a plant swap at the Schultze House on HemisFair Plaza March 7th from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Last year we had too many aloe, agave, cactus and ask those not be brought. We use the same procedure as at the Plant Festival - a ticket a plant (or two or three if the plant is larger or unusual). If you would rather not take home what you brought, we donate them to the Schultze House. The Schultze House and Gardens are taken care of by volunteers, most of us are with the Bexar County Master Gardeners and we welcome questions. Hope you can join us. If you need directions, please let me know and I'll find the link to the AG office....See MoreWANTED: Plant Swap April 26th in San Antonio
Comments (2)I might be able to make it depending on when the reschedule is. I would love some seeds anyone has to give away for plants that like full sun and aren't overly large. I've really been wanting some salvias and sedum...See MoreWANTED: San Antonio Swap continued....
Comments (129)The third plant on the top row in the freezer bag is Salvia chiquita. It is cold hardy , xeric once established, give it afternoon shade, am sun. I think I had some in afternoon sun and morning shade. I keep it on a flat area, because it does seed out quite a bit if you are on hill country limestone. People on clay do not have this problem. Beautiful 2' blooms that bees and butterflies fight over Blackfoot daisy is from me, I think. The Next plant in square 4" pot is Phlox pilosa, I think. Takes sgae and sun, will spread. I have it under an Oak tree on the east side and it is spreading out to the sun and further inro the shade. Great dry shade gound cover. I never water it. Salvia regla is from me also. It like shade and sun also . t is cold hardy and . Mine got to be 8 ' but I had to cut it back and now it is a very bushy 3'. It is a Big Bend sage , probably from the wetter mountain canyons. I like planting it where it gets afternoon light from the rakingsun in the fall because it will be starting to bloom really soon and it is such a treat when the setting sun hits it in the otherwise shady area. It LIGHTS UP. the blooms are timed with the hummingbird migration. Sedum palmeri is from me also. It will root easily . No hormone , no water, just stick it in the ground. It can take fast draining. It is hardy to 0 they say. Mine lived through the freeze and THE BIG D without water. It looked like hell but came right back. I think you got the first of the two Agave , The agave univittatta AKA Agave lophantha from Gardenlover1 after the swap on roselees "parking lot". This is a whole family of agave and are a very confusing trying to tell which is which because their is a high amount of variability and intergrading between species. I got a triple Datura that looked like yours from Mamachile. Hey, Dona, Rebecca was telling me you were having expensive well drilling bid . If you want to talk to me about Rainwater harveting, feel free to email me. My email is listed on my page. We are 100% dependent on rainwater. Mara...See Moresigma3
