Works for me! I beleive in using all bio material!
I moved my flower bed edge out a foot, as I did, I was thinking 'i'm unintentionally moving it so all the peanut shells (off the deck) land IN the garden, not lawn.
Plant it and they will come.

Is somebody willing to share a cutting of Variegated Winter Daphne (Daphne odora 'Aureo-Marginata')? Mine disappeared! No dead bush seen, I do not know what happened to it. Would like to try to propagate it---before I purchase one. In the mean time try to clear a spot for it----in the backyard where it was before.

My pistachio shells are salty & spicy, will they make the soil kill plants?

Jill, Shantell wants 10, so it is ok for me to add 5 and get 10, easier for you too to figure it all out.

Awwww the beautiful Daphnes...I miss mine from my townhouse. It up and died one year after having it for at least 6 years Crying They're on my list to purchase. Probably wait till fall though to see what does well that I planted last fall.

So we're up to 30 tuberose? 10 each for Francine, Chantell, and Lisa? (And 10 more #1 'Red Flash')

@Rick, are you OK with getting 20 #1 bulbs of 'Red Flash' for the price of 10 jumbo bulbs? ($15 plus shipping)

@critterologist 10 Tuberose clusters are good for me as well. If you need to add 5 to mine to bump up to an even 10 for anyone - I can do that as well.

We have a mystery tree growing from just under our sunroom (probably about 4' tall) - used the 'Picture this' app and it's stating that it's a Japanese Cherry. Before I dig and toss - if there's takers I can add to my swap list.

Do you think it would help RickM a lot if everyone brings his or her own plate, bowl, cup, or glass, fork, spoon, knife to the Swap? Choice what to bring is up to the member and if guests are not members then the member is responsible to bring the utensils for their guests.

I like the idea, as it may cut down on trash and using disposables! I'd be happy to put my own used items in a bag and bring them home to wash. And less mixing up of 'wait, is that MY soda I left over there?"
Plant it and they will come.

No worries, I haven't paid our invoice yet. OK, I had Rick down for 5 jumbo 'Red Flash' (=10 #1 bulbs), so I'll just keep our order where it is at 60, 20 each for me, Lisa, and Donner.

Please give me FINAL NUMBERS for tuberose, in any multiple of 5. Don't worry about rounding up, but if you WANT 5 more, it's time to say so! Smiling

Bringing plates & utensils makes sense to me. I'll have some sort of serving pan/bowl to bring home anyway. Just remember to take them, especially if they are part of your regular set at home!

I just added 3 pairs of obelisks from Aldi's to my swap offerings (via swap tool, please). Bought for $10, asking $8. I'll be offering some totally free things as well. Does anybody collect milk glass? I have a pretty footed cake plate from MIL. Also have a potato ricer. First to post, your name is on it. Smiling
