WANTED: Teacher Neeing Plant help

10 years ago

Hi.
I am a biology teacher and am forever emphasizing the importance of plants in my classroom. I trade on GardenWeb frequently and need really "funky" plants that I can display in my classroom by the windows. For example, I have a large sensitive plant (students rush to be first in the class to set it off) , some hairy type of wandering jew("did you 'glue' the hair on?"), donkey tail("Can I start one?"), and amyarillis ("Is that real?"). I had a Venus flytrap until a student fed it Doritios

I need a mother of thousand to show that unique asexual reproduction, rock cacti, and any other "strange plants".

Please look at my trade list if anything interests you or I'd happily pay postage.
Thank you,
Zophra (Tamara)

Amanda, I can't reply to your email directly - you have that option blocked. But I would LOVE you have anything that you think would be neat. I can grow cuttings. Thank you for all the ideas - I'm looking of some of these. Do I have anything that you would want in trade or can I pay postage?

I have a couple sedums you might like. I have autumn joy sedum and dragon's blood. Dragon's blood blooms and turns from green to a dark color, almost red. If there's anything on my list you'd like for your classroom just ask. I teach recycling to kids and we do hands on projects like making a plastic pop bottle into a lightning bug with a glow stick. It's fun to watch the kids get excited, make connections and ask questions. Heidi

I also have lamb's ear...byzantine something latin blah blah. Fuzzy and soft. Kids love to touch it. Feels like petting a furry animal.
