Hi Friends, Getting used to Seattle after move in May 05. Can't believe it has been that long. Well, we moved to be close to family and that is what we got! My husband and I have almost 30 first cousins living in the Northwest. The immediate family is 16 at the table. I drop in occasionally but still working and having husband retired and trying to reestablish my new garden has me busy and enjoying our new home. I am doing more lectures on Bible Plants and Bible Gardens and maintaining www.biblicalgardens.org and we have passed the one million mark for visitors. My son who was ill with GBS is still in a wheelchair but vows he will be walking by the end of 07 and he has the will and guts to make it happen. We pray that it will be possible. I have met some wonderful gardeners and am exploring all the possible things to grow in the PNW. When we moved I had to leave the huge redwoods in my old garden..... Andi said I could not move the trees.....LOL but I replaced them with old growth Douglas Firs and love them. But, I did take many of my favorite plants with me and think of all my GW friends who traded with me and swapped at our parties and in Chicago. Each one tells a story and it is repeated everytime they start to sprout or bloom. I must bore my visitors to death with tales of Andi, Suzane, Suzi, Neil, Rev, RuthAnn, Bigfoot and Liz and all the others who sent me seeds, cuttings and plants. But although I don't visit here very often everyone is in my heart and in my garden. Happy New Year and I hope that everyone has a wonderful year full of happiness and beautiful gardens. Shirley sps

Yo-Yo-Yo!! My uber kewl package of Spooktacular seeds arrived today, just before "All Hallows Eve (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween)"! And to think, even though our fantabulous USPS, for whatever reason, delayed the delivery of my package, I was yet included with the rest of you in this totally fun swap,...thanks to Erica! So glad I didn't miss out. :) - "Major thanks, Erica!" - As for everyone else who so generously participated, don't forget to thank Erica personally on her "Rate & Review Exchanges" forum thread, here: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/raterev/msg011420128659.html Happy Halloween, everyone! -Cryptid

This is the native plant exchange. Most of your plants are aliens from other continents. You need to delete this thread and go over to the seed exchange. You could also offer trades on the forums specifically about your plants. Like the Hoya forum, or the houseplant forum.
