Looking forward to attending this year! Some of my absolute favorites came from this swap.

I am looking at the garden almost every day, seeing what's there. It's still a bit early to see what I'll have in any quantity.

HAVES:

My biennial variegated Lunaria (money plant) sowed very well, so I will have some second year and lots of first year seedlings available.

I'm seeing lots of asters, but I have several colors now so don't know what color these might be. They would be tall New England asters.
Autumn Joy sedum, I need to start rooting them now, so let me know.

Should have 2 small Persicaria Polymorpha if I can successfully chop them off the parent. Might need to use an ax? I brought one last year, I don't know who I brought it for, and hope it lived.

WANTS:

Still thinking about what I'd like or need, except for woodland plants, which is ongoing. Trilliums, jacks, etc. ; columbines, geraniums, esp dark leaved or big root geraniums. Pitimpinai, your variegated Solomon's Seal you brought me last year looks GREAT!

Ellen's heuchera seedlings were GREAT! I'd love as many as she can spare if she started any this year. .

My disabled friend who needs groundcover for a yard that is full shade now really liked the green and white variegated snow-on-the-mountain (aegopodium). Has shade under trees and can’t get grass or anything else to grow as a low-maintenance groundcover. I got some last year, but his yard still is mostly bare dirt! I would love more if someone has it.
