The Plant Exchange

Want: Elderberries & Willows- lots to trade

11 years ago

Hello! I've moved to a new home in Colorado and had to leave behind acres of plants. My new place has nothing but dry grass. I'm looking for any kind of Elderberry bushes (Sambucus sp.) and Willows (Salix sp). I'm looking for these willows the most: S.matsudana 'Golden Curls', S.purpurea Purple Willow, pussy willow, any variegated such as 'Hakura Nishiki'.

I have more than 600 types of seeds available for trade, some very good cacti/succulent specimens, etc. Check out my page.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I should have specified that I'm looking for rooted plants or cuttings of the Elders & Willows!

Thanks

Erylyn,

I have some really nice elderberry plants (huge clusters of very large berries) on my property that I could take cuttings from. Would you be willing to trade rose cuttings for them? I have to look up vegetative propagation of Sambucus for the best time of year to take cuttings. Otherwise, I could root them first and we could trade rooted cuttings?

Now that I read your posting again, it looks like you only have seeds....is that true?

Let me know what you think.
