Anyone interested in swapping young plants this spring? I did it with a mumsnetter last year, worked well.... we sent each other about 10 plants, small ones, either bare root or small pots.... let me know...

Might do this next year. Unfortunately nothing to swap this year due to baby taking up all my time. Next year will have my lift back on track.

I would be interested, where abouts are you ?

hi bensmum... I just posted them last year... was cheap really... think it cost me a few quid to send about 10 young plants... unless you happen to live in norfolk? I must get in the garden and have a rummage!

Have got some penestemons cuttings in lilac, and some nutmeg clove pinks (really dark maroon flowers that whiff of cloves, ) if any-one interested.
