Does anyone have ground cherries to list? I think there was one listing I missed.
Just curious....

Let me check...

Sorry, thought I had some. Closest thing I might have to a ground cherry would be Chinese lanterns if that is what you want.

No I wanted to try and grow the cherries to see what they taste like..But thanks for looking!! :D

No problem. I figured you were looking more for the aunt molly type.

I'm planning on growing them next year so I should have seeds then. I tasted one for the first time last week and they are really good! I'm hoping we have a normal growing season next year. I don't think they would have done well this year with our drought.

DnD,
Is this the last night of the swap, or is there one more night tomorrow? I know it started on Friday night, so guessing this is the end of bidding??

@Val -- I just got home and saw your message. I listed a pack of ground cherries for you.

Am I really really going to get a cazillion seed packets I bid on??? This is my very first swap and I am soooo excited for the many new gardening adventures all these seed babies offer

Awww Tina. Yep, you sure are. It's kind of like Christmas when they arrive too. You'll really have so much fun fooling with all these. I hope you liked your first swap. They are so fun. Thanks so much for your offerings. I will truly enjoy the things I've gotten from you.

THANKS, Erica!
So happy to get some and share with a buddy who also wants to try them! :D

You should still have access to trading...I believe tonight (Friday, in the states) is the last night, according to what I put in the system. Trading ends at midnight (GMT) Saturday, September 10, which is this evening at whichever time is applicable to your time zone.

I'm sorry I didn't see your message sooner! I've been exhausted this week. I was only supposed to work Tuesday and then have the rest of the week of to work on gardening, seed swapping, hybridizing (entering data on all of my seed pod harvests), and cleaning the house, but they asked me to work all week instead and I've barely been able to come on NGA at all. :-/

I've been searching all week for a pack of seeds to offer and just found it this morning. Before the swap ends, does anyone want me to list some Japanese Iris seeds? They are from Henry's White. I wintersowed them last winter and most germinated. With the drought only one survived so you'll have to keep them really wet! Just let me know.

bxn, I just got my start with Siberian and Japanese Iris and I would love to bid on your Henry White seeds! Thanks for asking!

DnD, so sorry this week worked out the way it did for you! Thx for the info.

Sorry about that. I was putting together a raised bed and planting daylily seedlings.

The iris seeds are posted!

Ouch, DND!

Work does have an annoying way of interfering with fun! I hope you still had time to bid on everything you wanted.

(I always hide the "zero quantity" items so I don't notice when I miss something that I had wanted to bid for. That way, every Bid is a Win!)

I have tried and failed several times to grow the iris , A set for them I do have though , The most beautiful clump I ever Almost had seen , Was a 5 ft clump of them growing under a shrub at a previously abandoned home They had been there since the 40's ,90's is when I saw them
Lot and lots of plantseeds to try now .

Jim, I recommend sowing the seeds in coir potting mix since it retains water better than anything else I've tried. These are water lovers! Mine is in a pot but when I plant it I'm going to add lots of coir to the soil. I've got one small spot in my yard that stays wetter than normal. That's where it's going but first I need to move the Lilium regale that are there.

This evening I am trying to determine what is chewing My red Milkweed vine Insects this time of year if starting anything outside are distortions .. Will have a few new coneflowers a couple of Daylily and a few snapdragon .. Hopefully lots of feverfew and Aster .. Easy non grow plants that grow well regardless of anything ,, Like The Rudbeckia plants ..

Bxn...I had no tickets to bid on yr iris. Thought DnD said tonight was last bidding night, but looks like it officially ended at 8pm. Sorry to have missed them!
