Guidelines for 2012 Trades
**THIS THREAD WILL BE LOCKED UNTIL MAY 14TH AT WHICH TIME YOU CAN POST YOUR TRADE LISTS**
(This will give everybody 2 weeks to get stuff potted up, inventoried, lists ready, etc. And it will give us all time to make sure what we pot up is actively growing and will truly be available for trade.)
We ask each participant to put up at least 3 plants or rooted cuttings with at least 4-5 leaves. They could be from your own gardens or "bought in" plants (because some people can find some heucheras easily in their area and not others). Anything less than 3 plants is probably not worth the postage.
We request each participant to show the following information in their trade post:
1. Heucheras you have available to trade (would be helpful to also show Heucheras you really want and Heucheras you do NOT want)
2. If you only want to trade Heucheras for heucheras, or if other plants traded for Heucheras would be OK
3. Other plants you have available for trade (if you're not trading Heucheras for Heucheras)
Once lists are posted we ask each of you to work out trades with others via tree-mail. Please keep this thread for trade lists only.
Once you've finalized a trade, please come back here and edit your post to update your trade list.
Preferred ship date for plants should be by mid-June (drop-dead ship date), unless you work out other arrangements with the person you're trading with.
We would like to be fair to everyone and have this be as smooth and seamless as possible. If all works well we can make it an annual event!
