HAVE: Astilbe and Hosta

11 years ago

Dear Garden Folk

I have 5 green and yellow unnamed Hosta looking for a shady home. They're about 24" x 24". I have 3, maybe 4 sunburnt Atilbe also looking for shade. The Astilbe are obviously sun burned and the Hosta have been diagnosed with sunburn by the Hosta forum. I would want you to see them or their pics before committing

They both started the season in glory and now theyÃ¯Â¿Â½reÃ¯Â¿Â½ well they're burnt.

I don't know how to post the pics. If you're interested I can probably figure out how to send the link in an email.

As far as what I want. If you could set me up with your Ã¯Â¿Â½Have to TradeÃ¯Â¿Â½ list that would be great. I'd prefer to take the trade in the spring but would rather you take, if possible, the Hosta and Astilbe this fall

Lastly, IÃ¯Â¿Â½m in Northern Massachusetts, Zone 5

Let me know if this sounds good to anyone.

Thanks!

Dale

Sounds good to me. I am sending you an email through GW. I'm interested in your astilbes if someone else wants the hostas.

Hey folks

Sorry I didn't say before. I'm not able to ship the plants.

I'm near Chelmsford, MA near Nashua, NH

Thanks!
