I still have a few irises, hens and chicks and crocuses left to give away. E-mail if you want any. They should be okay through the end of the week. (They make great gift ideas!)

The irises are purple and white, and fragrant. Medium sized - up to about three feet tall.

The crocuses are white, and bloom on branching stalks. They bloom in mid to late May - rather late for crocuses. In places in my garden they grow thick like grass. I have some other kinds that seem to be loners. These seem to flourish in bunches.

If anyone is interested, I have a
gardening journal.

I'd love some of the crocuses but, I'm not sure how they'd travel as far as Vancouver.

They'd be fine.

Do you have any ground to plant them in? I don't think they do well in pots.

Good point. All I have are pots although, my daffodils grow well that way. I'll leave it up to you. The white crocuses might be different from the purple fuzzy prairie crocuses I grew up with on the farm. We basically only get 2 days of snow here in the winter time with yhe balance being rain. That might make a difference as well.

You don't happen to have one of those tall chicks-and-hens pots with holes in each side, do you? I can't seem to find them...

Ok, thanks. I like them, but no one in MI seems to carry them....

I've seen them used for strawberries too.

If I find one, do you want me to ship it to you?

No, you don't have to do that...just let me know where, or if it's online, let me know the URL....

OOOH!
I forgot to email you.....
If you have anything left, I will take them.
We can actually grow Iris and Crocus nicely here.
I don;t know what the others are.

lemme know...Maybe I can send you some jack-o-lantern seeds for next year? or sunflower seeds?

Still got some. Send me you address right now!
