Only one that comes to mind is......

Carol & Sue's BIG DAWGS!

Thanks so much for including me in the wanted list Sue. I'm leaning 99% towards joining, but have some busy months coming up with building our new house and don't want to completely commit until I'm positive I understand ALL the rules. If I have to stay out, I certainly hope you'd consider me for your next one.

Hi Everyone.

Remy

Hi Susie,
I would love to have June, This would be Daylilies.

I will pass on the April seed swap, as I am not big on seed's & don't have any to share.
:)Anita

I would like May or Sept....I'm thinking "perennials". Unless there's enough interest here for "Roses?"
Theresa

Hello, hello, the new seed swap info has been posted. Taking sign-ups! Mellen

I'll host perennials in May, but I can't receive them until May 15. Theresa, would you want to do Roses in September? Treasa

Well, If there's enough interest in "Roses" that's fine with me. Or we could maybe do perennials again (once for spring planting and once for fall planting).
Theresa

how about cacti/succulents?

or perhaps a 'most wanted' where we can send some of the things our 'buddy' wants most?

Blessed Be,
Carrie Ann

I can honestly state that I don't own a rose, and have never had the 'patience' for roses...

just my own preference!

hi everyone.

carol stole my christmas in july.
i was going to do "divide and conquer" perennials in september, but that's gone, so i will take december and do a holiday swap WHICH WILL INCLUDE A HOMEMADE ORNAMENT. so start working on it now LOL

carrie ann, run with the cacti thing for may, i would be intersted in that as well.

that homemaker show is in town rebuilding lives. no sign of ty or the rest of the crew though. will be pretty neat to see the end result.

I'd love to run one, but have no idea how to... perhaps some of the 'veteran' hosts could tell me 'how' it is done? or could be done?

Thanks!

Blessed Be,
Carrie Ann

I would love to do our December swap (if it's ok). We could exchange garden items. Birdhouses, gardening totes, tools, gloves, windchimes, garden flags, seeds/bulbs, little greenhouses, etc. basically any type of item that's "Garden themed". Or if Everyone prefers, we could do a basic Christmas box swap!

Carrie Ann, You can do a cacti/succulent swap in May, like Earthly suggested, if you want. I don't know what the homemaker show is. Perennials in September sounds great. Treasa

Sorry! I just re-read the thread. Earthly's doing the December swap! I read it so quickly, I thought She was doing the July (Christmas in July) swap.

I'll do November then (if it's still open and of course if everyone likes/agrees on the theme idea).
If its ok..let's do the Garden themed box then.
I explained it a little in the post above.
We would be exchanging garden related items, anything and everything that is garden related, and of course fits nicely in a priority box!

APRILL ------- MELLEN----- SEEDS
May----- TERESA24----- CACTII ???
June--- NYVOICE----- Daylilies
July ---- VEEJA11---- Xmas in July
AUG ---- GRANNYMARSH ------ IRISES
SEPT --- DANCINGMOON----- HOLLOWEEN ???
OCT ---- REMY ---- Bulbs
NOV ---- DEBBYA----- GARDEN BOX ???
DEC ---- EARTHLY--- XMAS ???

Well I See we are going to have a variety in the next
few months :)) a well rounded group of gals :))

I have sent to you so that your gardening friend s
have a guideline as to what you want or need in your gardens .
you all will recieve a info sheet on all the players.
after I get them all :))

Anyone not sure as to how to plan your robin month
please contact veeja11 or myself & we will be happy to
help you. plan :))

Also For any of you that might not have certain type of plants LIKE I have NO CACTII & Don't do House plants
I'm still Going to play for maybe I can be assigned to someone else that don't have or want them & we can choose another type of plant to trade with each other :))

so there is room for all of us :)) in all the robins if we want to play.
But you do Not have to play every month .

use this forum for sign ups to our group .
but if you want in on the monthly seed swap go sign up

have a great day all I will be back on later tonight.
susie

duh... My mind just "got" Remy's The Flying Phoenix suggestion. Very Clever.

I don't do cacti or houseplants either. That's why I was thinking a general "perennials" in May where we share our divisions from spring dividing. But I will do whatever is "most wanted" in May. Just lmk.
Theresa

Wow what a great group, we even have some newbies who agreed to send first. Sue has put me in charge of the big dog, so he will be out if you don't send this goes for oldies too.It loks like our name is All my blooming friends. since we are modled after the tdls we may ask them if we can be little sisters, a totally seperate group but friends who copy ideas occasionally, welcome and hugs to all my blooming friends

Carol,
Sorry, but I had to laugh, you want to be a little sister to yourself? Sorry I could not help myself.

I really like the idea of being abel to join even if we don't have THE EXACT plants for the month, cuz that would sure knock me out of a lot of month's, the other way, :)Anita

Ok you got a point about little sister to myself maybe we could be a chapter, boy lots of daylilies poking their heads up. got lots coming in april but dh is giving me another piece of the lawn so I should be ok. sue does come up with great ideas, maybe we could expand it to anyone wanting to trade for a different item in a month could post that they wanna do a beer trade(example) and see who bites
we grow as we go hugs carol

Lol, Grannymarsh. I'm glad you like now that you figured it out. I'm slow on the uptake sometimes too : )
Maybe the cactus could be expanded to plants for a hot sunny garden?
Remy

I'm sitting here just woundering what the heck I'm Going to do with All this easter candy , chocolates & other goodies along with a couple easter lilies :))
anyone mind if I was to have a bunny swap for the group or you think the seed swap is plenty ???
the stores are getting their lilies & crocus & hyacinth
daffodills
& my madness has taken over :(((

Please tell me its ok & let me know if others are
over stocked also .
If I can get at lease 8 of us to play I will
put up a forum for that :))
