Here's my starter list of Cuttings - the wisteria and honeysuckle are dormant now. The aster I can dig up with some rhizomes, not a lot of that one as I was getting rid of it (too much greenery for the spot close to the house in my fire zone - going to dwarf plants there). Can also dig to share some of the alstroemeria.

Phygelius
capensis, Cape Fuschia

Alstroemeria
(not the short florist pastel variety, the hardier orange with yellow)

Buddleia White Profusion

Buddleia
Honeycomb

Wisteria - repeat bloomer purple

Lonicera
x heckrottii Honeysuckle, Goldflame

Plectranthus ciliatus

Artemesia Powis Castle

Aster -
California aster (spreads easily by rhizomes, people love it or hate it) tall
3 to 4 ft. Some photos in my ideabook of things I grow, I'll see about uploading more.

Just wondering, did you intend the Cape Fuchsia be on the first line with Phygelius?

Unfortunately, for me, most of the common plants are less expensive to purchase locally than to have shipped. So I don't really trade plants, and would more likely ship something out, than in. If you had a yellow Aechmea blanchetiana or something, though, we might be talking!

Are there specific plants or seeds you are seeking?

Thanks for catching that! There are just so many Californians trading plants here on GW (egads even with dirt - what about Japanese beetles or Squash vine borer and even trading citrus, roses - all those horrid out of state micro-organisms we can't see). So, I'm hoping to lure them over here if we could get some action in this forum. Thought I'd just start up a thread. Hmn - I'd love more drought tolerant low growers (firescaping is A#1 for me) - things many would consider boring - dwarf santolina (Nana is one), plants on the Arboreteum All Stars list. The yellow cape fuschia ( Phygelius aequalis). I'm with you on price, happy to ship cuttings, not so much the effort of rooted plants except those few I mention as they're so hardy those tubers would be fine.

Editing to add - that Aechmea is a beautiful plant!

I'm sorry Maggie M, long day with a sick relative, and I short-scripted by post. I didn't mean that is what you asked for, but since I have some extras of your wanted plants, but you don't really have anything I seek, I was going to offer to send you some that were on your wish list. But then I reread your post and realized some of the want list plants were for the purpose of being sold, so I lost interest in sharing. I'm sorry for how my one sentence post sounded, and will delete it.

I also have virus free Fortuniana cuttings rooted (from UC Davis). :)

I could trade those too. :)

I should also have cuttings of saucer magnolia after spring. Alexandrina Saucer Magnolia: Magnolia x soulangeana 'Alexandrina' :)

Thanks for clarifying gyr - I like to think I'm a nice person, but not that nice! All of my want list are for me and my garden first - then if I have extra (I may start 3 times as many plants from seed as I can use, a milkjug full of cuttings (perhaps 9 to a jug) - donate the extras to our non-profit MG groups' plant sales - I'll delete their mention above as if I trade, it is for me first. My own list - say the yellow cape fuschia - it's because I'm surrounded by Sierra forest land and we have too healthy a population of voles and gophers - yet although many plants get eaten / disappear in a day or so - my cape fuschia (and butterfly bushes and knautia) just tramp along. I don't want to be killing animals every week for the foreseeable future of my life - selecting plants for my personal borders that may be boring but can look decent and survive. I know in So. Ca you can grow so many exotic fun plants that my offerings would appear boring. That's ok - if I were in your growing areas I'd be growing what many consider much more interesting plants too.

Cori Ann - I am going to have to find a few things you'd want, that's a fantastic trade list! I was just telling a friend how much I miss my magnolia x soulangeana from my previous garden and wondering how long I could grow one in a large pot here. I was able to get a bunch of it's seed to germinate by placing them in damp peat in a baggie and leaving in the fridge till it started growing - was one of the things I'd traded when in the bay area. I also really miss my rosa Alchymist, double moss (which is impossible to find) and climbing Iceberg - but I know for a fact that the critters eat rose roots (so you come out and the bush just topples over with no roots holding it in the ground). Been thinking of trying to root a white Banksaie as it seems that if you can get it established, it survives the critters (so I'd plant it in a wire cage to give it a chance).

I couldn't give up roses for critters. I would put in gopher wire and raised beds (which is what I did in several areas)... or do pots. Roses are happiness for me.

I will have some limited cuttings after spring for the magnolia. I want to root a few extra myself. :)

I like natives... sounds like you may have some of those. But yes... find something good and lets trade. :)

Thanks Cori Ann - do have hardware cloth in the raised veggie beds (pic -and hoping to add 2 more of those this year) but the long front border raised bed is just too dang big to deal with (I think it's 22 8 foot fence panels long). That one is for the tough survivors only. Still layering / working the weeds there.

Cori Ann - I'm also trying to root White Banksaie and Fortuniana. I don't always have enough patience for rose cuttings though, truth be known. The Master Gardeners here will have a bunch of Little Red Runaround at their March sale.

Hi Maggie! I hope your plants are enjoying the rain and sunshine! Hey if anyone in your gardening group has the rose "The Prince" by David Austin (which, I believe, is now off patent)... I would be VERY VERY interested in trading for that one! :)

I should also mention I went ahead and just bought a Koko Loco so no need to trade for that one anymore. :)

Hi Cori Ann, the local group focus more on the cemetery / found roses that are tough and drought tolerant, but I'll keep my ears open to see if we have Austin fans here. Saw your whole rose starting picture walk through on the roses forum and loved it btw. That Koko Loco is a different color for a rose - congrats, it's a good looking one.

Thanks! Tough, drought tolerant roses are even better! I'm looking forward to possible trades. Spring and summer can't come quick enough!
