Peonies Plant and/or Seed Trader I helped beta test the first seed swap Celebrating Gardening: 2015 Garden Ideas: Level 1
this was incredibly convenient AND FUN. ive only been on the piggy swap but those three uears of piggy swaps enlarged my garden and my seed stash to the level it is today. the timing of this swap is ideal....i like to have everything out by mid december so i can start growing some as early as mid January under lights...tho most of my seed starts are in late february. i work a demanding sales management job and this swap is so simple i can even do it weekdays. and the 'seeds sold' list is fantastic, especially the way traders names are listed alphabetically with the seeds theyve 'bought'...I am actually packing as I go, every few days. i will be away for Thanksgiving in Disneyworld with DH and grown daughters...so not participating much but i will stay tuned to see if any new seeds. im sure this swap will be topic of conversation...my 19 and 23 year old daughters are puzzled by this strange hobby of mine but I tell them gardening is filling my need to nurture now that they have moved out and left us with an empty nest...
Thank you to Dave for this masterpiece dezign and now i think ATP is going to grow like crazy...just have to add more detail to the plant database, i was noticing that while researching unusual seeds that were offered, ATP database doesnt even list height for many things. its always something, right? How about in this season of thanksgiving we express our thanks by going into database and editing descriptions for plants we have if we notice details missing, like height...wait, im not sure i know how to do this or if its possible, hmmm.
