Seed and plant swap

redser7

If you save your own seed and want to share or exchange it please let us know. Perhaps you have half a packet to spare or have an unusual type to recommend. Did you take too many cuttings and need to find a good home for them? Maybe there's something you'd like to try and think you might find it here. Or maybe come spring time you find you don't have room for all of those tomato plants that are filling up your window sills.

Anyone got a glut of skunk cabbage? I have recently discovered that someone came into our garden and dug up snowdrops daffodils and leucojum. Has anyone else experienced this dastardly behaviour?

Appealing for a herb that I used to grow: Salad Burnet

It grew so easily that it flourished in a caked rockery and self-seeded from year to year.
It has a delicate strand of dark-green leaflets, and the dinkiest little dark red flowers that you ever saw.

Mine disappeared during some rebuilding and I've been looking for seeds or plants to start it again (A very useful little herb it is, too: and very pretty on fish, with a faint taste of cucumber)

Mysteriously, it seems to be unavailable: no seeds, no potted plants, anywhere I've looked.

So, has anybody got some? Even one little plant or a few seeds?

I can't offer much in exchange except loads of goodwill and good karma, and unto half my kingdom in houseplants LOL

Big grin!

Thank you - i have ordered seeds. Though the postage seems very steep, I'm waiting in hope!

Looking for some Courgette plants in Nenagh area, mine all perished. I have spare plants of tomatoes, chives, cucumber, various brassicas and nasturtiums or am happy for someone to pick through my "seed book" as I have learnt seed doesn't keep great. Thanks Tracy

Not too late to resow courgettes; they will soon catch up

There is one called Lemon drop but it's not dwarf, notable for a rather untidy growth habit and the fact that it flowers in spring and again in Autumn .
I have it, nearly 6 feet tall and very untidy. I'm trying to pluck up the courage to top it in the hope it would bush out!

Question regarding hellebores. Garden centres are selling them off cheap as they're looking a bit worse for wear. Will these die off like a perennial but revive then in the spring? I need some cheap plants to fill a long planter but don't want to waste my money if they're just dying

They are perennials. They will grow every year.

I knew it sounded thick when I was typing, just wanted to double check!

On that note, some good bargains b&q/woodies, picked up hellebores for €3 from €16

So I got my cheap hellebores. They are looking a bit worse for wear, should I cut these back completely or just deal with the worse looking leaves?

Silver Breeze

This large hebe with purple flowers is wild along the outside of the East Pier in Dun Laoghaire.

Last year, I took cuttings, grew them on and now I have too many plants.

Cuttings have not flowered this year, but will next year.

Free to take in Dun Laoghaire.

Best, Bob
