Hi Greenthumb18 -
How far from Vermont are you? (I'm trying to figure out what might survive shipping.)

What kinds of things are you looking for? What would you like to trade?

Hi,
Well i'm looking for fruit plants, like grapes or berries etc.. Also maybe flowers of some sort.
I'm able to trade bulbs, certain flower/vegetable seeds and fig, raspberry cuttings etc, what are you looking for?

Thanks!!

First of all, I want to welcome you to TEG! Wow, I just noticed that you just joined tonight...that's neat. Well, I don't have any fruit things to offer, but do have tons of different perennials, and a few herbs... maybe some would interest you. We're zone 5 now (recently changed from 4); whatever grows here should grow for you. It's late and time for this day to end, but I'll give it some thought tomorrow. Thanks for the fun idea - I love sharing plants and things!

What kind of bulbs do you have available?

Hey,
For bulbs i have different tulips, crocus, gladious, cannas, etc.
I will have more bulbs to offer since its that time of year to plant bulbs i could offer you some bulbs that are on sale down here.

I'd be very happy with tulip or crocus bulbs, if you have any to spare. Do you want me to start listing some of the perennials I can divide, or do you want to start a wish list and see what I have? What herbs do you need? I have2 kinds of mint - who doesn't?), lemon balm. anise hyssop, oregano, lemon thyme - those are the ones I still recognize. Dill seed, of course.....tons of coriander seed...probably some flower seeds, as I didn't deadhead regularly this summer...

I have some veggie seeds, some herbs like basil and parsely available. No fruits though Sorry. I do have many flowers though, lots of wildflowers... foxglove perrienials... hibsicus bushes, dwarf and non-dwarf. I'd love to get some bulbs... I'm just dying to plant something this time of year

Just let me know if you are interest and I can mail some out to you.

Thanks and WELCOME... this is a very helpful place for sure.
