Hi everyone,
I wanted to reach out to all of the banana lovers out there and see if anyone would like to do some plant trading. I just got started last year so I do not have too much excess plant material that needs pruned back yet. But what I do have an abundance of is Colocasia Big Dipper that I got from Plant Delights Nursery. I originally paid $20.00 per pot for a little plant. Now I have many that are at least that size or larger.
I am not sure what the protocol is to conduct a trade or if I need some kind of license to do it. I certainly do not want to do anything unlawful. If I am missing the mark here, please will someone with more wisdom kindly advise. :lurk:
Here are some of the plants that are on my current wish list.
Bananas
SH 3640
Baccarii
Coccinea
Ginger
Alpinia Nutans (narrow or wide)
Alipinia Zerumbet (not variegated)
Curcuma (almost any kind would be fun)
Hedychium (Dr. Moy or Butterscotch, or others with big flowers)
Canna
Bird of Paradise, Intrigue or Similar
Heliconia (preferable less than 8’ mature height and tolerates some shade)
New Zealand Flax (looks cool, but I have no clue if it grows well in sw florida)
Thanks for looking. Have an awesome day.
