I have several different cultivars of Hardy Kiwi (A. arguta) available for trade, these are well rooted cuttings in 3" round pots. I have these cultivars: Meader Female, MSU, 74-8, Ananasnaya, Meader Male and Smith 2 (Male).

I have limited amounts of each.

In trade i would like to get well rooted cuttings of other hardy kiwis or other minor fruit or plants that are on my want list, which you can see here http://davesgarden.com/community/trading/list.php?list=want&member=InfiniteOhms Unless otherwise noted, anything I get in trade should be zone 5 hardy.

Dwarf Comfrey (Symphytum grandiflorum): Named varieties / less spready individuals preferred especially "goldsmith" but i would consider any plant of this species.

Black Currants: I'm interested in trying these cultivars:
"Polar" "Lowes Auslese", "Crusader", "Coronet", "Crandall" and "Willoughby"

I have lots to trade, please check my list at http://davesgarden.com/community/trading/list.php?member=InfiniteOhms or http://www.gardenweb.com/auth/nph-logincheck.cgi?action=public_profile&user=infiniteohms or email me to ask if i have something you are looking for. Thanks!

PS Other plants I am looking for include: Named Seaberries, Pedicularis canadensis, pedicularis groenlandica, Named Goumi Cultivars, Named Honeyberry (Edible Lonicera spp.), Named Hardy Kiwis.

Siberian iris seems like it would work great, german/japanese iris seem like they wouldn't work at all.

I will try out some of those, thanks!

That's a good idea, but it is not hardy here, i should have mentioned i am in zone 5.

I really need to keep the quack grass from the mown grass/clover path area out of my annual gardens and forest garden... so i'm thinking of a border for cultivated areas about 3' wide with 2+ species with dense roots to stand guard around the edge. So far i have tried it in one area with just bocking 14 comfrey and it has worked well so far. Next i'm trying Sorrel and turkish rocket with yarrow in front of it. Have other people had success with this method? What other species might work well?

Looking for short season paw paw and walnut (including heartnut, buartnut etc) scions. Named varieties only. I have lots to trade, check out my list (see below) if you are interested, or send me a email.
Thanks!

I am interested in experimenting with Effective microorganisms, so if anyone has a healthy culture going i would love to trade for a cup or 2 of mother culture to get my experimenting going. I have lots of plants and/or seeds available to swap.

I am also interested in named Hostas with good shoots / leaves for eating.

Hi All,
Its almost time to take hardwood cuttings for winter rooting, I am looking for named varieties of Black Muberries (morus nigra), Josta Berries, White Currants, Honey Berries and any other minor fruit i don't already have that can be propagated by hardwood cuttings. I am in zone 5 and am only looking for things likely to do well in this climate (although i am willing to take a chance on a marginally hardy plant).

I have lots to trade, here is my list: http://davesgarden.com/community/trading/list.php?member=InfiniteOhms
