crittergarden's Plant List

A note from crittergarden
I have returned to the garden after an absence of 3-4 years due to health. I'm most interested in growing perennial edibles for myself and perennial plants to attract pollinators, hummingbirds. Color preferences: DEEP, very saturated, oranges and purples. And TRUE BLUES.

I lost many plants I miss. I'm willing to share for trade but I have powdery mildew.

If you're not afraid of my seeds, I'll have a big crop of Asclepias incarnata (which IS pink flowering, but I'm hunting for the white variety to replace what I have.) Also some drumstick allium, and blueberries from a bush whose fall color is red. Perhaps some rudbeckia that also spreads with runners underground. That's about it for seeds. I WAS sharing plants, roots, tubers, rhizomes, corms, etc. a few years ago before I discovered the powdery mildew. <sigh>

Since I added this to my list, I've learned that it can be grown outdoors zone 10+ and if grown in a 20" deep pot (a wide one), it can be perfectly happy wintering inside at 60 degrees or above. Now I really MUST have it! :D
