Have much; want tried and true Southern plants

I just dug up about 80 tulips today and that prompted me to think about trading with other gardeners.
Have: many kinds of antique and David Austin roses(I will give you pencil-size cuttings, or suckers with roots if possible), ginger lilies, variegated yellow cannas, aforementioned tulips, daffodils, grape hyacinth, many kinds of hyacinth including roman(these were very expensive, and I have only a few to trade), wild columbine(red and cream),many daylilies and irises(the drawback is I don't know which variety is which) small volunteer cabbage plants, surprise/resurection lilies (also called naked ladies), agapanthus (again I have only a few of these).
I am an adventurous gardener and I have many other plants, that I can't presently remember, and would love to trade for antique China and Tea roses,Dutch or Louisiana irises, camellia starts, Southern Heritage plants, or anything unusual that will grow in my beachy, deep-South climate.

RE: Have much; want tried and true Southern plants

I have Ajuga plant(blueish purple flower), pink pussy willow cutting, curly willow cutting w/roots, Allium "drumstick", Euphorbia (green leaves and bright green flower)not sure which type exactly, Balsam "Touch Me Not" (mixture of color white, pink, and purple seedling), variegated sedge, variegated ribbon grass " strawberries and cream", variegated ribbon grass (green & white stripe), red raspberry starts, and mountain ash seedling.

I'm interested in your David Austin Roses cuttings (If you know the name I could tell you which one I like to have), ginger lilies, variegated yellow cannas, daylily (if you have an unusual collection other than plain single solid color), agapanthus and maybe your tulips (what color are they?, I really like the parrot, tulip and flame looking kind).

Not even sure if I even have anything you want here but just thought I give it a try. Thanks

What kind of gingers do you have? What color are the surprise lilies?

I have a clump of blue LA iris that has outgrown its space, not 100% sure on the id, but I think it is giganticaerulea. My "want" list is reasonably up to date, you can see if any of your other plants are ones I'm looking for.

I have Louisianna irises Kay Nelson, deep purple and Abbeville red and other plants on my list that have done well for me in zone 8a (Alabama). I am interested in your yellow canna, roman hyacinths and agapanthus. Please let me know if you would like to trade.

I have some off shoot from my maroon crinum and also from St Christopher. I'm interested in your agapanthus, mine died during last summer heatwave.

trading Southern plants

Can't send you an email but would like to know what daffodils you have to trade. I have a variety of named Louisiana irises to trade.

Thanks!
Trish
