    Thanks jo ,I'm gettin your seed sorted

  • hi 

    I have a few spares of things I have grown this year, looking to swap for interesting Salvias, Agastache, lobelia, Bee balm or other bright perennials. 

    Have not got many of each but thought it was worth asking- Collection only I am in mid Cornwall and up and down the county quite a bit. plants are a bit heavy to post .

    probably have seeds of most plants below as well if anyone is interested  in swapping 

     

    Achillia - mixed pinks

    Digitalis fendurena 

    Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Taiga'
    Digitalis purpurea ex alba
    Armeria maritima 'Alba'
    Kniphofia uvaria 'Border Ballet'
    Lychnis coronaria alba 'White Rose Campion'
    Salvia argentea, Artemis
    Dahlia coccinea
    Lepechinia hastata
    Salvia patens 'Cambridge Blue'
    Salvia roemeriana
    Salvia patens deep blue
    Agastache aurantiaca ‘Apricot Sprite’
    Agastache rugosa, ‘Liquorice Blue’

    Clare just 're read your post .

    I have the salvia which grows to five ft it's pink ,blues and a mauve .all on one plant but don't know what it's called.

    I have a shorter line which I have a few seed off  but it was late flowering this year.

    I also have a blue , it's two yrs old and this year the same blue plant has a streak of white running through to the tip of each petal giving it a silvery effect.maybe down to the bees !

    Thanks Lynimage

    Glad the plants did well. The pink achillea you sent me did well also and one of the dahlias you sent me seed for has turned out a fab lemon/orange; waiting for another to open.

     

     They didn't come true did they Victoria, mine are all colours, hardly any Magenta and White like parent plant.

    thats seeds for you.

    i have posted the seeds to you today, postman hasn't been here for three days!

    my Achillieas and Geums were good too, very pleased. Thank you.

    This looks an exciting thread , just joined today, love growing from seed and always collect lots from my garden so hopefully list some to swap soon.

    grammar could your coloured salvia be salvia sclarea, one of my faves looks good for so long .
