More plants that I have for trade (sadly have no named varieties):
pink bleeding heart (could I send cuttings?)
lily of the valley (lavender and white)
purple columbine
forsythia cuttings

...
more plantings are coming up all the time and I will post as I identify them!

I also have a number of succulents but they were neglected in the worst way (i.e. left outside to soak in the rain and cold) during our move so they will need some months of TLC before I trade.
- panda plant (kalanchoe)
- elephant plant (pachyphytum)
- red and white flowering kalanchoes
- christmas cactus
- pencil plant (euphorbia)

I also have some orchids:
- white phalaenopsis
- apple blossom orchid (Iwanagara)

Are your orchids hardy, Asterid? If they are, I would love to trade my peonies for them.
