Here is a link to the Special Instructions for the Exchange. It explains what posts to look for and there are links to lots information threads. hth.

toads, I will soon harvest seeds from Miscanthus sinensis 'Strictus' and Miscanthus sinensis 'variegatus' that I would be interested in trading for tall phlox. Alana

The most common Hardy Bamboo is Phyllostachys aureosulcata, AKA Yellow Groove Bamboo. As far as I know, you can't grow it from seed, but it grows very well from transplanted rhizomes and clumps. Find someone with a local grove, and beg for transplants. This is a running bamboo, so you'll have to take that into account. It's best to contain it with bamboo rhizome barrier material. Willow is Salix. Read all about it here: http://www.bluestem.ca/willows.htm Plan ahead for next year, and you can probably score all the cuttings you need for shipping costs only. I've got dozens of them growing from cuttings received from other Garden Webbers. The cuttings are usually taken in late winter, so it may be too late to get any this year. It couldn't be much easier to grow. You literally stick a foot-long cutting into the soil about 3/4 of the way, and it takes root instantly. You can count on at least 4-5' of growth, with several canes shooting from each cutting, in the first year.
