Been gardening since I was a sprout. Have gardened in many climates from alpine to tropical. Built large greenhouse to pursue my passion. Currently in love with plants from Madagascar. Have serious collections of bromeliads and succulents. Adore trees and perennials. Not in to veggies unless I grow them for looks alone.
Seed swapping policy: I try to be as generous as possible with the amounts I send. I never re-trade seed until I grow it on myself to confirm its identity. I run germination tests on all seeds I collect, whether from the garden or in the field. My seeds are labeled with botanical name, date and year of collection, my name and, if requested, germination instructions. All are sent in bubble wrap. I love plants with a history, heirlooms, oddities, the newest, the oldest, the stinkiest, thorniest. You get the idea. :-) |
