Happy to entertain any trade proposal, but do have a lot of plants already. Also happy to send for postage, full box of either small (3-4 smaller rosettes) or medium USPS flat rate (enough to instantly start 2 full pots, multiple mature rosettes with stolons attached.)

This potted one started forming these flower stalks around the end of the year, which take a few weeks to get to blooming stage. They open periodically, not every day. Smells really good! This year, I haven't broken them yet, and am still enjoying the blooms some days. This pic is from 8/4/13.

The plants for postage/trade are actually much more robust, having escape a pot at DH's Mom's house, so up until recently, were growing in the ground. Before I knew she had those that needed new homes, I cut off most of the stolons of the potted one pictured to send to a friend. They will grow back very quickly, a very fast-growing plant for mostly shade if/while outside, some direct light while inside for winter is what makes the flowers form.
The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
