rockskipper's Plant List

A note from rockskipper

After a month on ATP, I have come to understand....I am just a 'kindergartner', in the presence of highly educated, well informed graduates!!
All communication has been exceptional, I've been given, and accepted, good advice about navigating and making friends. My very first experience with a member was with Vallylynn, I purchased sempervivums, they were priced right and she was more than terrific!

Thank you Valleylynn.

My trade list is very small, and mostly 'old school' plants after viewing other members lists.
I have always wanted to 'flower up' my yard but had these issues: If I was working, I had the money...but not the time.
If I wasn't working, I had the time...but not the money.

Two years ago, I worked at a greenhouse, she couldn't afford to pay me, so I worked for perennial plants. I have since lost a lot of them to cold, or hot weather-well quit us, couldn't water.
Now, I find ATP!! Love it!! I've already discovered no one wants to trade for what I have...but that's o.k. I don't mind paying for what I am looking for if the price is reasonable and I have some extra funds.

I am looking for colocasia, alocasia, my all time fav's, heuchera, lily bulbs-tiger and trumpet, dahlia tubers, sempervivum-thanks again Valleylynn-not so much anymore, oxalis, and a hosta or five.

If anybody finds themselves with extra's, holler at this old hickabilly granny....
