Ellen, I have Chicago Royal potted up for you. Also silene. I can also give you a pie tin of silene seedlings if you want a lot. I have you down for daffodils. I’m interested in the seedlings of blue flax, primula Danova, and Salvia Merleue blue. Priority to primula.

What is the ferny looking purple leaved plant at photo # 3? I could use purple/dark foliage!

Luvtogarden, I’ll reserve the remaining Lemon with Melon Daylily for you. And a Chicago Royal. And 1 or 2 small pots Centaurea Montana. They were tall, and wilted big time : but should be fine in time.

Rolrod, I’d love the Ostrich ferns! Thank you! Are they the tall kind, that gets to be over 3 feet, or the short, under 2 feet? I can use either one, just need to know whether to site them at the front or the back. I’m interested in the columbine seeds when you have them. I have a lot of dwarf alpine blue but little else. I have you down for daffodils. I’ll try for another Chicago Royal.

Jasmine, I'll have Drumstick Allium seedlings for you, as well as the daylilies and daffodils.

FWIW, many of the daylily divisions will be small, since so many wanted them. But they are vigorous tetraploids, and fast growers. They might not bloom this year: I’ve never divided in May before.

Does anyone care if the daffodils are just in a bag? Due to the long foliage, they won’t stand up in a pot after digging. Since they still need to ripen, I’m not digging them til Friday morning, and trying to minimize bending of leaves. But if you won’t get to them right away, I’ll pot them. Let me know here by Friday morning.
