Hi everybody! I was Stage Rat on g-web, it took me forever to decide on a name for here, silly I know.

I'm excited about the swap, as always! I love knowing that the plants I bring will definitely find a good home so I'm glad to see some lists!

I have some hellebore seedlings and will try potting them up, but my goodness they take forever to get to any size. I wonder if the seedling(s) Mone got from me years ago have bloomed yet. It may just be worth the big $$$ to get a gallon-sized plant--although I was so lucky and got my plants on clearance for much less (Menards). I can tell you that White Lady spreads faster than Red Lady, Blue Lady and Pink Lady so I'm now a big fan of white hellebores! Also Pink fades quickly to buff/dirty, I wish I'd known that. I have also bought 3-inch hellebores, one from Bluestone's clearance sale which bloomed after 2 or 3 years, so that's an option too. Hellebores are AWESOME (and I grow mine in mostly sun).

DonnaM:
I'd love a white iris please! And maybe some spearmint--mine has been swallowed by my other mints!
I'm not sure if the zebra grasses I had in pots survived but I will hope so, and I will try bringing some hellebore seedlings for you.

Jqsen,
I have a medium yellow, medium-height iris I need to divide, would you like some?
----------------------
Linnea, I will bring you some silver-speckled pulmonaria and
hopefully obedient plant (white)--it hasn't been very vigorous where I moved it

I brought you some yellow perennial foxglove last year, do you want more?

If you're bringing primula japonica may I have a bit?
Also your lovely daffodils, I can always find more places for them.
