Wow - you guys have saved a ton! I've been busy, and plus I'm not sure which other things I have will grow true from seed. I do have (as previously mentioned, but included here for convenience):

Linum perenne - blue flax

Coreopsis - possibly Mayfield

I'm not sure if I'll be able to get anything else - I hope its ok to play with just a little bit! I do have about 4 or 5 packets of each of those.

Irene, That's the beauty of the seed exchange -- the seeds we have are literally EXTRA. We're happy for someone who doesn't have as much to get them. I have a lot of seeds, but am actually getting rid of my perennials so I can have only annuals. Therefore I have a lot of what I don't want anymore. :)

And now I want your larkspur! LOL!

Lime

Whoops, I meant FLAX, not Larkspur.

Sorry,

Lime

Wow, You guys are making mine look extra boring. I am not about to type all teh scientific names, because, well I am just not that good! Anyways here it is.

Hollyhocks
wave petunias
upright petunias
duntra moonflower (white)
marigolds
dwarf sweet williams
arizone sun blanket flowers
black-eye suzans
columbines
Harlem poppies.
and anything else I can round up!

I have a bunch of mystery seed that my neighbor gave me but I won't be sending those because I have no idea what they are and she doesn't remember. I don't even know if they are all the same flowers! :0)

I've forgotten some of what I'm sending, I got them ready so long ago!!

I know there are 4'Oclocks (for the scent!)
nigella (pink and blue mix)
two types of ratibida
two types of native rudbeckias
some purple hyacinth bean vines (for those who don't want to grow the morning glories)
Abelmoschus: coral
Lathyrus Odorata "Cupiani" Sweet Pea
Strawflowers in pastel colors: great for cutting!
Nigella: transformer
Aquilegia and semi-aquilegia: various types
Penstemon: smalli and digitalis, both native and very hardy!

And there is always more. I'm always collecting seeds both common and more unusual from the garden for you all to try!!

GGG

Lime -

Glad to hear! I have to admit, while I love my blue flax, I've been getting sick of it - I'm not planning on bringing any of it to the new house!

Anyone want seeds for Catalpa speciosa? It is the most beautiful tree I've ever seen when in bloom. The flowers are white with spotted throat, look just like an orchid and VERY fragrant. My neighbors tree is full of seeds at the moment and I can grab some.

Nora Barlow
Maltese Cross
Mallow Pink
Chives
Poppies Purple ones and orange ones
Cosmos Pink
Two kinds of radish if they will hurry up and dry out! Been seed pods for ever!
Lupine

I have several beans for baking and soup that I bought from work I planted several of them and they all came up. But I did not grow these seeds. They are organic and grown in Maine--lots of cool kinds, 9 types in all if anyone is interested in them I will package them up for trading....

So far this is all I think I will be having to send....

leasa,
are any of the beans pretty and fast growing. I need something faster for the tripod in my kids' fairy garden. I put hyacinth bean vine this year and it finally looks good- 2 weeks before frost, LOL!

We're now entering our fall growing season, so most of my flowers are just now starting to bloom after being dormant most of the summer. Hopefully I will have these seeds in time for the seed swap:

Globe Amaranthus
Cosmos "Bright Lights"
Cosmos "White Swan"
Verbena - pale lavender
Garlic Chives
4 O'Clocks - hot pink
Lantana - confetti and red/orange mix
Penta - hot pink
Zinnias - large, bright orange-yellow
Profusion Zinnias - orange
Cut & Come Again Zinnias - purple
Datura - white
Salvia Coccinea
Esperanza

Marilyn

This is just a quick list for me - no scientific names yet though I will try to get those on the packets.

purple foxglove - 25 packets
convoluvus - 4 packets
white rose campion - 28 packets
mystery seed for which I'm going to post a picture later for help in identifying - 10 packets
mixed pink and purple columbine - 31 packets

still left to package up:
white reblooming foxglove
portulaca - mixed colors
forget-me-nots
french lavendar

I don't have a huge variety but most of the things I do have, I have lots of seeds.

Also, I was so enamored with someone's photo of crimson clover this past spring that I bought a pound of it off the internet. That was the smallest size I could find, and it's way more than I want, so if anyone else is interested I could include some of that seed.

I'm so excited, I feel like a kid at Christmas.

fiwa

I hope I get some of those harlem poppies, butter_fly!!!
I forgot what all I'm sending, but it's almost 100 packets...

Amanda 'romando'

oooo, I'll ditto that. Didn't see those, thanks amanda ;)

tastefullyjulie,

I'm not sure how they will grow, I planted jacob's cattle, calypso, black turtle, red kidney, cranberry, king early, (that one might be a good one!) a green one that begins with f sorry I forgot the French name of it, and two others I can't remember the names right now. A small light beige one did not sprout the rest came up and are growing good, it will frost on them before I ever get any beans!!! but I wanted to be sure they would sprout and grow.
Want me to put in some of them for you? anyone else?
Leasa

Leasa,
I would love to get beans!
Remy

I have tons of seeds - can I get in on this trade???If so please let me know, Susan

Susan, you need to email the original poster for her address. But I think she's on her honeymoon so she probably won'y get back to you for a week or so.

I have a silly Cottage question, however here is goes -
Anyone have Horseradish seeds? I've had a terrible time trying to find roots or seeds.

Edna

Remy,

I will send beans and put your name on one of each packet. They will not be in the fancy envelopes I made up for the poppies and other flowers though!!

Leasa

Edna,

I will ask my neighbor if I can dig up one of her horseradish and see if it looks like the good kind to eat. I do not see any seeds on them, but if it is good smelling like the food one I will send it to you. It is no where near as big as the one I dug up and sent off to someone a few years ago.

Thank you!
Edna

I learned a lesson about cats and assuming they can't get into certain cupboards where seed are drying (and also that they love to roll around in said seed and knock it out of the trays and mix it into a huge mess). I'm going to throw the resulting mixture into a tilled area in back and see what happens, lol.

I do have the following (some from harvesting and others from extra seed from purchases.
14 packs Yellow Evening Primrose (warning - heavy reseeder)
6 packs Poached Egg plant
3 packs Mini-Lupine - mixed colors
4 packs Marigold - orange and red, large flower
5 packs Clarkia - pink
11 packs Hardy Hibiscus - pink with red throat

Would also offer two seed-covered cats, but my hubby's kind of attached to them, lol.

Sent off-
painted daisies
lady's mantle
rose champion
gas plant
pinks
poppies-double red
poppies-Queen Alexandra
red hollyhocks
nigella
catmint
asters
zinnias
basket of gold
sunflowers
violas
Kiss me over the fence Kate

There are more but I forgot what I sent.
Some of seeds from Mom and Grandma Fran.

I am forgetting what I had for breakfast too.:.)

I have a lot of the red swamp hibiscus. It is the kind with the (3) thin leaves. Very pretty, and got at least 7-9 feet tall. Tons of seeds.

*GASPS* Do you mean Texas Star Hibiscus????? I want some! I had one that the bunnies ate down to the ground and it was just a baby. I don't think it will be back next year.

Here's what I'm sending today. This has been my first time saving seeds and I've loved it! Of course, my husband and kids think I'm nuts (wait...can I send nuts?) but I'm only having fun, right?? Woohoo...off to the post office!

6 packets of each

Blazing Star Liatris
Periwinkle (mixed)
Breadseed Poppy (crimson)
Purple Coneflower
Purple Fountain Grass
Hardy Hibiscus(white w/red center)
Cypress Vine

Everyone have a great day!
Shawna

My list is unbelievably small compared to yours, but I don't grow that many flowers (other than roses) and, like Marilyn, the Summer heat did a lot of damage, so seed production was very low. Anyway, I sent what I have and that was:

- Purple liatris
- Pink Joe Pye Weed
- Coreopsis grandiflora
- Judas Tree

I had hoped to send white and blue agapanthus as well, and I actually collected the seed heads, but we have had a series of diluvian weeks (I know, I know, I was complaining about the heat a while ago) and I'm afraid the seeds are not completely dry. I'll see if I can save some once our weather gets a bit drier (they are protected), but I'm not too sure. If anyone is really interested in them just let me know and I'll see what I can salvage.

Edna, I'm sending a pack of the Judas Tree especially for you. I remember your triplets from last year and that only one survived, so if you want to try triplets again this year you'll have the chance :-) Seed production on the tree was much better this year than the last one, so hopefully the seeds will be even better.

Later I will have some more goodies - pittosporum tobira and cassia - but their seeds are not ripe yet, so I couldn't include them in the swap. Again, if anyone is interested, let me know and when the time comes I will send some directly to the interested people.

I don't know about you, but this seed swap seems to mark the beginning of the holiday season for me :-)

Eduarda

Ha! My list is smaller than yours, Eduarda! I have mostly roses and a handful of companions. I'm not very good at harvesting seeds - will have to do better next year.

So the only thing I've sent are some 'America' sweet peas.

Anne

OK OK I give in!

I have this gardening addiction, and I told myself I wasn't going to get too carried away next year, but . . . . . in reading your lists I was drooling so much I almost ruined my keyboard. I think it was the red swamp hibiscus that pushed me over the edge, all those red plants for my red bed. Sigh, I'm in.

Unfortunately it has not stopped raining in MONTHS so everything is so wet. I don't have a big seed list to send, but I have a big list of wants after reading this. Here goes:

ornamental pepper "black prince" (black foliage, patent leather black peppers)
sweet williams "sooty" - dark red and blooms a long time
rudbeckia "irish eyes" - very tall, light yellow with green eye
maximilian sunflower - TALL and perennial
verbena bonariensis
ligularia othello

Hi all

I'm a little late posting what I sent for the trade. You all put me to shame with using such specific latin names and for sending so MUCH!!

This is my first tim edoign this- I hope my seeds WORK and arent dead! I THINK they are ok!

Here is what I sent:

6 envelopes of pink coneflower
2 envelopes of a very wild native black eyed susan
( this one is very cool- nothing eats it and it spreads well.. good for any rockgardens or deer/groundhog problem areas! they eat my other susans but not this one)

6 envevlopes of another blackeyed susan. This one is more typical at the garden centers.

1 envelope with jsut a FEW seeds from my tall purple phlox. I think it is called Nikki ( about 3 feet high)

1 enevelope with a FEW red crocosmia seeds ( i think Lucifer)

7 envelopes of Cardinal flower ( Queen somthing was the name- dont recall entirely) it has red foliage/stems and flowers. very nice plants and the envelopes are heavy on the seed! the seed was surprising tiny!!)

11 envelopes of my Columbine- you all saw pics of it in spring. I think it is likely Mckanna Giant- I ant promise what color or hybrid of colors you will get from the seeds!
Mine change slighty each year!

1 envelope of garlic chives

9 envelopes of a VERY pretty pure white bearded iris. It's a great medium size. Not HUGE and not those tiny ones.it has some yellow bread fuzz but thr rest is pure white. It may be my favorite! it is so elegant.

if anyone gets my seeds and wants pics- please let me know. I wanst organized enough to send pics with them. Everything I sent is perrenial in my zone 6 ( and probably 5-9!)

I'm so excited :) You all have great lists - I may have to redo my wish list for Tracy. Ooops

Friend I hope I get your purple phlox. They are my fav. Great selection you guys.

I can not wait!

Where my spuds have gone the past three years will be my new friendship garden!!!!!!

Oh Goodie!!!

I bought white plastic tags to be sure and know who send what seeds so they can get credit for he beautiful blooms!!!!!!

Leasa

PS I hope some of them are winter sows......

Hi all,
I sent in more than 100 seed pkgs.! There were lots of multiples of course. Funny thing is I look back at what I wrote, I added on to the list, and I don't think I put Siberian Iris in, lol. Maybe I did? I'm losing my mind: )
And if anyone can't read my writing on my pkgs., please email me.
Leasa,
Most everything I sent are wintersowers. And I did put in the columbine seeds for you.
Remy

Butter_fly,

if you tell Tracy you want it- since you are the first to request it- you'll probably get it. I just got some wild phlox that grows rampant out here from a neighbor. i'm putting it in my ock/wildflower garden.. Next year i'll get seeds form that too for you. :)

Oh- and the butterflies and hummingbird moths love NIkki phlox too.:) that must be why you like it.

Oh Gosh, I am so worried you guys are going to be bored with my seeds. I sent some pretty boring stuff, but it was all I had!
Black Eyed Susan
Pink Coneflower

Exotic stuff if nice to have but sometime syou want the old reliables in mass quantities.. so it's good to get those seeds and i sent in the "borings" too. :)

I think they all sound faboulous. This is going to be a great swap. I am so excited!
