    Sorry, I don't have Tree peony for sale. If you want good quality ones, check out Cricket Hill Garden. They have a great selection.

    I have ALOT - off the top of my head:

    • 'Incrediball' hydrangea
    • 'Limelight' hydrangea
    • lots of different color/size/bloom times of daylilies
    • Stella d'oro daylilies
    • Nippon daisies
    • Becky daisies
    • a couple of beautyberry bushes ( http://www.naturehills.com/issai-beautyberry) It is really pretty in the late summer/fall, since it develops these beautiful (no pun intended!) purple berries, along its stem.)
    • butterfly bushes (dark purple, i think)
    • Korean campanula (purple)
    • Caltha palustris (these "disappear" after blooming & come back the next spring.)
    • Purple wisteria
    • Violets
    • bright lime "mini hostas"
    • striped "mini hostas"
    • Many clematis cuttings (unusual varieties like Belle of Woking, etc.)
    • Ruby/hot pink monarda (bee balm)
    • Miss Manners Obedient plants
    • Rozanne geranium
    • Walker's low catmint
    • other normal size hostas - one variety does well in full sun
    • Creamy white siberian iris
    • purple siberian iris

    If you are out my way, you are always welcome for a visit - I'm sure there are other things that I'm forgetting! Let me know!

    Are there specific peonies that you are looking for? Or anything will do? Honestly, I have most of the plants that you have on your list except for a few. I don't have the hydrangea, siberian iris, and Becky daisies. Do you have any newly introduced daylilies? Since I am not local, the trade has to be done over the mail.

    Karen- herbaceous peony is okay too... can you send me an email how much you selling for.. i am looking for Yellow and Red if you have any... my email is jruan1@gmail.com

    Hi Karen,

    I forgot to mention that I'm also looking for tall bearded iris - dark purple, white, or black.

    For named peonies, I really like Miss America; but I'm interested in tons of different ones - what kind do you have?

    • The siberian irises - both colors - are really nice & multiply like crazy!
    • The Becky daisies have converted me from a person who didn't like daisies before, but now I really like the freshness that they bring to a really neglected area of my garden & they are totally carefree.
    • (The hydrangea might be too tricky to do via mail, since they are unrooted cuttings.)

    p.s. no newly introduced daylilies.

    I am sorry but I don't have any more Miss America for trade. I traded and gave all of the extras last year. Most of the ones I have for trade will be Coral Sunset, Coral Charm, and pink singles. Do you want to trade iris first? I will have some white and dark purple for trade this July. I will have Ghost Train for dark purple, Immortality, and Pemcaw for whtie.

    Jian Ping Ruan, where are you located?

  • 10 years ago

    I am located in Brooklyn NY

  • 10 years ago

    We appear to have the same taste in iris - I LOVE the heavily ruffled iris!

    For iris: Pemcaw & Ghost Train would be great.

    For peonies, I've always wanted to try the corals - especially Coral Sunset & Coral Charm.

    What would you like from me?

    (If you want to try the hydrangea cuttings, if you like, we can try it, nothing to lose!)

  • 10 years ago

    RE: daylilies, I thought of one that you may like - it's a beautiful peach - the flowers are huge & have substance. I don't know the name & it's definitely not a new one, since I inherited it with the house over 10 years ago. If you are interested, let me know & I can try to hunt down a picture.

  • 10 years ago

    Do you have any Millennial Falcon?

  • 10 years ago

    Do you have any Millenial Falcon (to trade)?

  • 10 years ago

    I do have MF but it is being held for increase. Not much is left for trade since I got bad borer infestation last year. The plants that you have I maybe interested to trade for are Becky daisies and the Siberian iris. Do you have pics of the Siberian iris?

  • 10 years ago

    I think I might, but it will take me a day or two to find it. Will let you know when I locate it.

    also, will you keep me in mind for when the mf is ready? Borers BAD!

    Another closeup of the peach daylily:

  • 10 years ago

    Tall yellow daylily with slightly lighter stripe. This has nice timing, as it starts after the first flush of stella d'oros are done. These are very large flowers, about twice as big as the stella d'oro blooms.

    I am sorry but I really don't mean to offend you. I think I will pass on the trade. I will just send you the iris for postage if you want them. It will cost me about the same to go out to buy the Becky daisies as the postage it takes to send you the bulbs. I can also send you the Coral Sunset for postage in the fall if you are still interested in it then.

  • 10 years ago

    Thank you for your directness - I am not offended.

    Thank you for your offer of the "for postage" for the iris & the coral sunset - I would very much like to do that. :)

    I've never done online garden trading - can you please advise me how to get you the money for postage; and I'll do it.

    Thanks!
