    I can trade zinnias for poppies also. I don't know shat kind of zinnias you're getting from the trade above. I just collected seeds from yellow profusion. Let me know if you are interested.

  • 10 years ago

    Hi, so far, nothing b/c we didn't connect. I'd love your yellow profusion. Please send me a message;)

  • 10 years ago

    I have BIG Sunflowers. Single bloom yellow flowers, 12' plus high with the biggest seed heads I have ever seen. We don't use any chemicals at all. We use them to shade the patio, walkway and the garden. They are harvested this year and properly dried. Quite large seeds that also make a get snack wet her raw or roasted.

    I would trade a ziplok bag full for any tomato.seeds or any other seeds you want to get to a different home no matter what the age. I do quite extensive germination testing on everything we intend to plant during the winter. If something is weak or worse i understand. No worries.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you

    PMJONESJR45 - sounds good. Some of my tomatoes I only have a few seeds to share. After one more trade, they're off my ''have' list. Some I have PLENTY of, though. If that's cool, send a message w address. I will send out this week.

    Address is 3335 East Thomas Canyon Rd

    Thank you

    PMJONESJR - I'm trying to pack up your seeds. I am using your username as your mailing name. I also was trying to send you a message to give you my address- as I'd rather do that privately, but I don't see a message button. I'm really NOT skilled at this site, so I may be messing up. Please send me a message. If you're confused too, ask for help- someone around here will show you if you need to change settings or something.

    PMJONES- I don't think I have your email. Navigating this site is driving me nuts. If you can please send a pm- even if it's just with your email address.

  • 10 years ago

    Pmjonesjr45@gmail.com

    I really am quite incompetent using this site.

    Appreciate your efforts.



  • 10 years ago

    PHEW!!!! I FINALLY got everything packed up;) I had everything I was sending and receiving in a spreadsheet, and somehow- my computer got unplugged and I lost the whole sheet, UGH! So. Just in case I'm messing up, this is a list of people I'm sending stuff to- please lmk if I'm missing you;)

    Thank you for the update. Take your time. It certainly isn't planting season here.

    Regards

  • 10 years ago

    I'd like to trade some yellow profusion zinnias for some of your poppies. Let me know if you are interested.

  • 10 years ago

    Would you please send your address again. Your package is ready. It was ready Friday but ?,?,?

    Thank you

  • 10 years ago

    I'm done trading for now. I had to repackage three people's seeds. (Jordan, Paul and Leila) Sorry for the delay! I'm looking forward to unpacking what I've received and organizing it. Thanks!!


  • 10 years ago

    sometimes they are sticklers at the post office, different people have different rules unfortunately! the post office is not very consistent in their charges, and it sort of depends on who you get when you go into the PO.

    yeah, for a small trade i usually tape the seeds down on an index card or other card stock, recycled box or whatever. then i can get them under the 3/4 inch thickness rule and mail it as a "flat" or "large envelope".

    many PO people though will try to charge you the parcel rate, even when you do not have to pay the extra fee. i do hope you received my envelope without incident or postage due? just checking, i know it was packed correctly as a "flat", but i also know how the post office can be. and i just got your note that said the post office said your envelopes were too lumpy.

  • 10 years ago

    I repacked and sent out through my job outbox. hopefully they will not give me any trouble.

  • 10 years ago

    yeah sometimes just going through a different post office changes things. i bet they will be fine.


    i have been taking pictures of the plants i have been gathering seeds from, so here is one of the zinnias i sent to you, being visited by a flutterby =)


    actually they came out looking more pink in this photo, they are usually more lavender color, though theres a lot of variation...

    that's different from the zinnias I've seen. I can't believe how much variety I have now;) did you siw those from seed?

    Clindmeier, I wasn't ignoring you.sorry for the delayed response.

  • 10 years ago
    last modified: 10 years ago

    I think I may have a few Zinnias. It looks like several other people have offered the same. I would be interested in several of the items on your list but have limited items to offer in trade at the moment.

  • 10 years ago

    Anthony- I don't care about even exchanges. I'll send you want you want, you send what I want- I'm not picky. I do need time to get my list reorganized as I've traded away almost everything I have;) once you see my new list, if there's still something you want, lmk.

  • 10 years ago

    Chrissy,


    I'm sorry I don't have any seeds right now for you... but would you be willing to send my some herbs/greens seeds if I sent you a SASE? I'll take anything... I'm especially hoping to just start a few things in my window in Pennsylvania for the winter but I would appreciate seeds of any kind :)


  • 10 years ago

    Sure. PM me your address.

  • 10 years ago

    pmjones- I haven't received an envelope yet- lmk if you sent one out. gracias ;)
