michigan fall perennial swap
Comments (1)Well, the swap was great! It was fantastic in fact. We had some amazing plants, the food for the potluck was scrumptious, the door prizes were terrific and the jokes and humor were flying! It was a blast. Wish you had been there! Information for the swap was posted 19th July on the Get-Togethers forum as it seemed the logical place. I did not get one reply to the posting nor did I get any email asking for more information. How sad. If you would like information on the next swap, already in the planning for SPRING up in GRAND RAPIDS, just drop me an email and I will put you on the list and get back to you when the date is finalized. You are guaranteed to enjoy yourself. You can begin potting things up now and leave them out under a tree or something so that they are all set to go in the spring - that is what I did this time last year. Hope to see you there!

Comments (4)A number of kinds of beans, if you can get the seeds in very soon, or use plants. Cukes and and zucchini and tomatoes if you can put them in as decent sized plants, rather than seeds. Ditto, some kinds of winter squash. It's not even crazy to put in a few potatoes, if you can find some sprouting. Especially red or yellow thin-skins. Planting just a little later of peas, spinach, other stuff that will have time to germinate, and then really grow as things get cooler..... Might be worth putting in some chard. Won't get big and showy, but it just might be worth a harvest.... And for now, you can put in herb plants....See MoreCalling Michigan Gardeners!
