Looking for iris, peonies

10 years ago

I'm in West Windsor, NJ (08550), about 2 miles from Princeton University. I'm looking to trade for some iris, peonies, etc. from someone local.

Anyone interested?

    What do you have to trade?

  • 10 years ago

    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!

    I'm in Ocean County, (Manchester). So it's a little out of the way. I love to trade though and meet other gardeners who do also. So if we can make a few swaps we can make it worth traveling the distance. I have pink peonies, and yellow siberian iris to trade. I don't know what type (bearded or siberian) or color of either you were looking for. I have some bearded iris I'd be willing to trade, I'm waiting to see what blooms to verify colors though.

    You say you have daylilies, what colors/type? (I have plenty of Stella Doro)

    How big are the "Incrediball" Hydrengea that you're trading?

    Your Clematis cuttings, are they ready for soil? What type/color?

    I have alot to trade too. Do you have a vegetable garden? I like to grow a few different types of tomatoes, cucumber, melons, beans, eggplant, and peppers.

    Red daylily with chartreuse throat:

  • 10 years ago

    Tall, thick yellow with white stripe - blooms after stella d'oro, and is much taller. great for keeping the blooms continual.

    I haven't rooted the clematis yet, depending on interest level. But I could give you a huge hunk of Sweet Autumn Clematis to take home & root.

    For bearded iris, I'm looking for blacks, dark purples, or purple/white plicatas.

    Also, would love more Japanese iris, if you have any.

    For veggies, I have an extra Korean cucumber plant & an extra Korean twisty (mild) pepper.

    I have purple siberians and white siberians, but would be open to different ones! When they bloom, I will post a picture.

    Is this what you mean? Bearded iris purple with white picatas?

  • 10 years ago

    I have limited quantity but would be willing to trade possibly for your darker peach daylily.

  • 10 years ago

    Although lovely, the picture is more of an iris with "rays."

    This one is more of a plicata:

    I'm totally open to different things, though!

    Do you have pictures?

  • 10 years ago

    These are my yellow siberian irises in backround.


  • 10 years ago

    OK as they bloom I will send more pictures. These are from last year.

    Pretty garden. I've already got alot of yellow in my garden. Do you have any pics of the pink peony that you have?
