WANTED: Wanted: Looking for Hostas and shade plants

Hello out there, I'm looking for Hostas and other shade loving plants. I have an area in back of my house that only gets 2-3 hrs. of filtered sun through my neighbors 30 banana trees in the mid morning. Ideas or trades would be wonderful. I'm new to gardening, so any info would help me also. Please look at my trade list. Thank you, I appreciate it :)

I would be willing to send you some mixed hosta seeds, some unknown columbine seeds, and some unknown foxglove seeds for you to try out. If you're interested let me know so I can email you my address for a SASE
Some other seeds to look for would be heuchera, lamium, hellebore, toad lily, and primrose. I am finding these hard to come by as far as trading. Good luck!

Thank you KSimS, that sounds wonderful! I appreciate your generosity very much! I have Primrose started, do you think I could find the others at a nursery??

socialgarden, If you included extra postage in your commercial swap package I can send you several types of heuchera seeds. These grow quickly and are perfect for the location you described.
