HAVE: plants for Newcastle trade

18 years ago

I have a number of oriental limelight artemesia, Milium effusum 'Aureum', 2 rhubarb, 8 red knautia for the trade so far. And a red dahlia that looks just like a pinwheel. I'll dig and divide if anyone is interested.

Here are some pics

    I have about 75 varieties of dahlias for trade; might you want a few in exchange for one each of the artemesia, miliun and knautia? I can send you a URL of my dahlias if you are interested.

    Christine,
    would love some dahlia. you have mail!

    Christine,
    Make sure to CONTAIN the artemesia!!!! I made the mistake of planting only two in the ground. Three years later, I am still pulling them out!! They spread by roots and when you pull out the plants (even by the roots) there is ALWAY some portion of the root that does not come out -ie. more material for spreading.
    Having said that, they do look good in a container with purple stuff.

    Hi, I would like a few of your Euphorbia wulfenii seedlings. Thanks! Karen

  • 18 years ago

    I would love some dark purple Ajuga, please! Let me know if you see anything on my list, or I'll just bring you a surprise!

  • 18 years ago

    I gotta tell you gals (are they any guys out there? ) I'm soooo looking forward to the Newcastle Trade. I'm in heaven just looking at all the stuff everyone has to trade. Thanks already to those who've contact me about stuff on my trade list.

    Karen and Doris you are down for those. I'd love a Geranium 'Patricia', Doris. Karen, we're already square as I owe you for the cyclemen from last fall.

    What would you like Kirklandgal? I have cuttings of a bright pink penstemon that everyone really commented on at my last trade. I'm not sure how easy they root, but you're welcome to them and anything else you see. No trade needed.

    hi
    wow, stay away from GW and look soo much going on here! I had planned something else for the 19th, but I think this stuff is pulling me ...the dark (green) force is very strong here...:)
    I would love to get one red dahlia if you have and penstemon.

  • 18 years ago

    The penstemon will be cuttings. I'll put you down for dahlia.

    Hiya Jacquie
    I'd love a knautia, a dahlia and some onions. I am tempted to try the rhubarb, but don't have anywhere to put it. Does anyone know if it can grow in a large pot? Take a look at my posted list and let me know if I can bring you anything. Thanks!!! Looking forward to see you,
    Susan

    Susan, I'd imagine you could grow the rhubarb in a large pot, the roots don't go very deep about a foot so something like a half barrel would be perfect.

  • 18 years ago

    Okey, Dokey...I will give a piece of rhubarb a try! Let me know if I can bring you something other than the heather.

  • 18 years ago

    Hi Jacquie,
    If you have a start, I would like a white yarrow. I have you down for the quince start.

    I'd love some red knautia, any of the bright pink penstemon, Milium effusum 'Aureum' if there's still some available.

  • 18 years ago

    I have some varigated catmin (Nepeta) I can dig for you if you like
