Title: Aguilegia, Erythronium, Trillium
Post by: Calvin Becker on April 16, 2009, 09:48:20 AM

Hi all

If anybody is willing to exchange, I'm looking for seed of the following:

• Aguilegia species - here in SA we only get the McKana hybrids which I'm not too fond of so anything different would be great!
• Erythronium - no species in particular but would like to try anything
• Trillium rivale

I can exchange for seed and bulbs if you are interested. I have just collected Ceratotheca triloba ( African Foxglove) seed and have also just lifted some young Albuca setosa and Gloriosa superba bulbs.

Thanks!

Hello Calvin,

 I can supply some Aquilegia species later in the season; A. canadensis, A. atrovinosa, and maybe another.

 Also, I have all the eastern North American Erythronium and may get seed from them all this year. Email me privately and we can discuss a trade if necessary.

Hello Calvin,  :)

I can send you seeds Erythronium Caucasiсum and Siberiсum.
Probably Trillium camschatcense = T. rhombifolium if it is interesting to you.

And it is possible for me to ask a few your seeds North American Erythronium?

Maggi,
At me not only problems with the Internet were, all at once: there are no works (unemployed), the child, problems at school was ill, problems with habitation payment etc.  ;D

But almost all problems are already solved, there has come spring and it would be desirable to leave more likely in a garden and to put new plants. :D

Oh my word, Anastasia, you have had a much worse time than I imagined.... I am so sorry for your troubles, especially the illness of your child... who I hope is now very healthy and happy.
My best wishes for a big improvement in all of your life from now on  :-* :-*
