HAVE: Fringed Gentian (Gentianopsis crinita)

I just collected fringed gentian (Gentianopsis crinita) if anyone would like to try growing it. This is a beautiful late blooming blue biennial that grows wild in part sun, and moist soil. I'd like to trade for things on my want list, or other woodlands species, but open to other suggestions.

    I would love to have some. The only thing that I think I have that you might want is lemon mint. But if you will take a look at my tradelist to see if there is anything that you might want. thanks :)

    I'd like some of the gentian seeds and perhaps a couple other items from your list as well. I have the splish-splash geranium and other unusual items. You can find my list at the following link and--if interested--e-mail me from my member page. Thanks!

    I would love to try the fringed gentian! I have five seeds drying from Geranium sanguineum 'John Elsley', as well as some painted trillium and some bloodroot(Sanguinaria canadensis), both woodland plants. Neither is on your list of wants. I've heard the trillium can be a difficult germinator, but the bloodroot is supposed to be easy.

    I noticed you have Hawaiian Pineapple tomato on your list of 2006 tomatoes. Would you be willing to trade any/all of those for your fringed gentian and the Hawaiian Pineapple seeds?

    Do you have any Gentianopsis seed left? I love this plant. Most of my collected wildflower seeds are from the Pacific Northwest, so they might not be hardy where you are. However, I do have some Gentiana sceptrum collected at 4000 feet near Mt. Hood. That would probably be hardy for you. I also have Lilium canadense and superbum that would grow well there. I am also growing some Gentianella detonsa superba, another fringed gentian that should grow where you are. How about some Actaea rubra? Let me know what you would like. Thanks.
