I would be interested as well. The monthly meetings could also be a swap meet. Bring plants to trade for others. Yep, I'm in!

[Carey]

interested...esp in giving away plant material!

Carey, when I first bought my house, you were giving away red ginger on freecycle, so I got to meet you. You were so nice and so generous, I knew I wanted to be just like you when my garden grew up, and take people on a tour of my yard and give them cuttings of all kinds of nice stuff. Thank you!

BTW, the giant lilikoi cuttings you gave me took, and finally produced a fruit. 25 feet up in a tree. Turns out, they don't fall when ripe, they just hang there and rot, laughing at me. I pulled the vines down and am training them within reach.

I'd be interested. I'm most interested in edibles, but there are lot of those that are also considered foliage and landscape plants as well.

I read you can eat the giant lillikoi like squash. I was just wondering about trying cuttings. Sounds like I can give it a go. And Carey, so many moringa, so many deaths. Ha. I had one get 5 feet, have flowers, and then just die. My newest one in a pot lost its leaves, and came back. I have one piece of plumeria still clinging to life. Yes, thank you for all your sharing over the years. Not just plants, but also of yourself, and the mountain of information you have presented us with.

Peace and long life
