We'll see how this works out.
The idea is to list an item you want, or have, to swap or trade. You don't have to list it here, but can keep a trades list in your Blog.
Those of you that know how, can add a link to your tradeslist like this http://davesgarden.com/community/trading/list.php?member=wee...
Now, only post once, and if you wish to add or delete a swap/trade item, just edit your post!
You can do this by clicking on "Edit" which is just under your name in the lefthand box, then changing, adding or deleting items and text.
Now I don't want to have to tell people off, so NO CHAT
Also, you can't edit a picture, as far as I know, so you needn't add one unless you can't help yourself.
This thread shouldn't get too long if we all stick to the rules ok? But if all fails, we will just start a new one.
The only plants I am interested in at this point are bromeliad pups and palm seeds, and now the Mexican Tree fern seeds, added 9/7/08 - gourd seeds, lipstick palm seeds If anyone has any to spare, have a look at the link above to see what I have to offer. I will be updating it periodically.

I don't have much to trade as yet but I do have plenty of lovely bright orange daylilies. These are a smaller flower but very prolific . The flower is a bright orange double, with a splash of crimson in the centre. They will quickly multiply. Are very hardy, dying down in winter and coming back in spring. If the weather is mild they will not die right away , just shed some leaves and put on new growth.

I also have plenty of irises. These are a mix of colors and some are older heritage varieties. You have to take pot luck as they have grown together over time.

I now have my dragon fruit cuttings but will be able to swap a few epiphyllum cuttings later in the year.

Please check out my available plants here: http://davesgarden.com/community/trading/list.php?list=have&... and my wanted list here: http://davesgarden.com/community/trading/list.php?list=want&...

The "Read Journal" link will give you access to all my plants - it's still a bit of a work in progress as I have about 200 entries still to do in the Cacti section plus a lot of updating to do.

Ciao, KK.

I will have swaps at the end of the season for some species if you have any unusual species to trade OR if you would just like some bulbs of Lachenalia aloides 'Aurea', Lachenalia aloides var. quadricolor, or Lachenalia mutabilis please DMail me

Hi all, Glenys here from Bendigo. I am looking for someone that has large white Chrysanthemum cuttings, around August of course. I want the really pure white varieties, but nothing in Spiders or Quills, they make bunches messy. I don't have anything to trade but am really happy to pay for the cuttings. I only need around 10, so if there is someone out there that can help, please let me know. Just so you know, it is freezing here today, not happy!!

Just a note on quarantine, in Australia AQIS have a database listing probibited and non-prohibited imports. Anything not listed has to have a case made out for it showing it fits in with the requirements for import. That costs, and gets that plant listed on the data base. This is the URL for the data base, you can do your own searches and see what conditions apply:

http://www.aqis.gov.au/icon32/asp/ex_querycontent.asp

I'd suspect the USA and some other countries would have something similar. Anyone wanting seed sent to them across national borders should make the enquiries of the local authorities and, if okay, contact the 'sender' with details of how they should be sent.

Of course, then there's CITES regulations, that's a story of its own.

Hi Guys,

I have Cycad Male pups for trade or just give away.
I have got a great Zygo growing and could pull off a couple of pieces.
I have rooted pieces of Senico J.
I have Green Mamba Aloe pups. (GASTERALOE A. haworthioides XG carinata v. verrucosa.Green Mamba - Aloe)

I am chasing this plant with passion as I love it.
My last one passed away when I was travelling so much nursing my stepdad and then when he passed moving mum here.

Mum didn't like the winter here so she has left me and moved to Yeppoon near Rockhampton.
