I purchased one too many of these gorgeous wisterias (link above). Songsparrow pkg. came today and I need to ship out the extra, right away. Would any artist be interested in trading for this wisteria?
Well, I wished you lived closer and I'd trade time on a horse for my daughter (who has disabilities)! She LOVES her time in hippotherapy...and anything to do with horses :)
Garden ornaments, anything creative? Do you have some old horse "gear" that you can no longer use that Maggie (my oldest) could use as a decoration in her room or that we could put in her garden or hang on a fence outside her window? I'm a city girl, so I don't know ANYthing about what would work. The wisteria I have is in a half-gallon container and over 4' tall (HUGE for a shipped item)--the box is about 4' long so shipping will be interesting from this end...
Here is a pic of the garden outside her room (and the stuff on her fence). What can we swap??

I make little bird feeders made out of mismatch coffee cups and sauces, set on a rebar stand. There are three to a set and they are adorable. I do not have a picture ready for posting but if you think that is something you might be interested in let me know and we can settle it up after your trip when I can take pictures of all the sets I have and you can choose. OR... I can make a horse shoe "robe hook" for your daughter's room. Any of these ideas sound like a good trade to you? Let me know.

Hi Pat,
Please don't be confused. The offer is for a trade so I posted to plant trading, too--with a link to this (the original post). Can you email me a picture of the birdhouse/cup & saucers?
Diane
When do you leave? I can try to get my husband take a picture of some of the combinations of cup & saucers I have already. I have a "farm set" of a black and white cow, on red "checkered" saucer, 2nd one with a groups of cows with wings (Dreamsicles) with red & white check edge on white saucer, with the 3rd cup is a red barn on dark green trimmed saucer. I probably would SEARCH for horses for your daughter, I'm sure I can find some rather than the cows. When you see the cow ones, you will at least know whether you want me to search for horses!
I'll try to get my husband to do that tomorrow for me! Who knows? He'll be home LATE tonight...
Pat
I'll be gone for the next two weeks so am closing the thread. If anybody has an interest in the wisteria and a trade to suggest please dmail me and I can answer when I return. (My DH is taking care of the wisteria while I'm gone).
Many thanks,
Diane
