seed give away!!

This is a giveaway for flower seeds that I collected from my gardens last year. I have way too many!!

To the first 10 people to post (newbies, oldies, & in betweens!!) I will send 25 packs of flower seed (listed below)

Please DO NOT email me! I will only go by the 1st 10 to post here.

Once I have 10 people (or less if I can't find 10 takers) I will email you with my mailing address - please make sure your email is not blocked on GW.

You will then need to send me a Bubble Envelope. Inside put a return mailing label with your address, a small note with your name and GW ID (just to help me prevent any mix ups!) and 3 stamps for the return trip. I will cover any extra postage needs. I will be mailing these from home, not the P.O.. (my day job prevents me from reaching the P.O.)

Here is the list of flowers I'm giving away:

Amsonia

Hesperis matronalis Dames Rocket, Sweet Rocket

Sanguisorba minor Salad Burnet: Cucumber flavored leaves.

Agastache Anise Hyssop, looks similar to 'Honey Bee Blue'

Amaranth 'Intense Purple' annual

Lychnis coronaria Rose Campion, velvety foliage, vibrant colored flowers

Helenium autumnale Pretty yellow flower

Allium 'Purple Sensation' not sure if this comes true to seed

Belamcanda Bloomed 2nd year from seed for me (Z4)

Liatris Gayfeather, purple

Penstemon 'Husker's Red' Beautiful colored foliage and flowers!

Asclepias tuberosa Butterfly Weed orange

Solidago 'Baby Gold' Bloomed 2nd year from seed.

Malva 'Fastigiata' Pretty soft pink flowers

Scabiosa Soft yellow flowers

Gaillardia Mix Unknown mix of Blanket Flowers

Coreopsis Looks like a taller version of 'Baby Sun'

Cosmos 'Sensation Mix' Annual Shades of Pink & White

Feverfew Semi Double Very cute and dainty

Polemonium Jacob's Ladder violet

Coreopsis 'Goldfink' Yellow

Aquilegia Columbine mix of puples, creams, & whites

Shasta Daisy,'Silver Princess' My 3rd yr. from seed was gorgeous!

Two Suprise Packs!! My choice, from my gardens of '08.

    I tried to add a link to my photobucket page with some pictures of the listed flowers, but it did not work. If anyone knows how to do this, I'm willing to try again!

    I know there is more than ten but I know there are always a few who don't follow through, so I just thought I would send a responce to let you know I am intrested and if some don't send you there postage maybe I could. I would also send you some wonderful scratch pads and a letter opener.
    Thanks

    I received my package today from Karen.

    Thank you so much for all the time it took you to do this project, Karen. Your seeds are packaged so nicely, and you included information on each packet. It was really kind of you to share your seeds with all of us!

    Perhaps rather than leaving thank yous here within this thread (and bumping it back up) those who have received Kalena67's generous offer would like to leave a review for her at the link below to her review thread at The Rate and Review Forum.

    "This offer is filled!" said the offering member on March 4th.
