i'd love hibcus and ballon flower

thanks for all you do

Hey Martha, Do you have a type/size preference for the hibiscus? I have taller (7') red ones (species) with normal colored green leaves or shorter (4') red ones (hybrid cultivar) with darker foliage.

Brandon - wasn't sure I'd be able to make it to the swap, but looks like I may be able to come by either early or late (11 wish?). Anyway - I won't have much but had a couple things potted that I'd like to find a home for. And of course you always have something that tempts me ...... that zig zag cactus, if no one else is interested I would be and am wondering if you got one of the tropical pitcher plant cuttings at last fall's swap. If not, I got 3 of mine to root and would be glad to bring you one or even two, ha! They are kind of neat looking with their 'pitchers'.

Yay Frances LOL. I will bring you the zig zag cactus. I left all my bog plants at my old house (in the bog). I don't have a bog at my new house, yet. One of these days......

I would love a hibiscus with scarlet red flowers if it is still available.

Sorry Brandon ..... not taking 'no' that easy. This is a tropical so it will be going in your house - and doesn't need a bog. I will bring it and if you really don't want it, you can pass it along to someone else.

Suzanne, you got it!

LOL, Frances. The problem with me keeping it inside is that I water my inside plants about once every 3 to 4 weeks. Almost all my plants are succulents and cacti. I don't think a pitcher plant would make it. You could come over and build me a bog.

I would love a hibiscus if they are still available.

Mary, catch me early at the swap so we can figure out which kind you want (before they get away). I think I still have at least one of all three types.

Whatever you want me to take. I'm not choosy.
thx
