The Super Plant Muster


 Hi Everyone - this is something of an event - though there is no time or place as yet, although a temporary cut off date is set for the 2/6/2012 which falls on the next Produce Swap at the RCNC Community Garden.


The Seed Savers Plot @ The Community Garden is nearly ready for planting out with perennials and unusual and exotic plant varieties. See previous posts below concerning the progress from the start.

We are seeking plants/seedlings/cuttings of unusual perennials, exotics and plants that are not always easy or indeed possible to propagate from seed. To give you an idea of what we are after we have already received plant material for: guava, sugar cane, pepino, sweet potato, dragon fruit, blackberry, yacon and cossack pineapple.

I have listed this as an event on the Facebook page so that you can place offers of plant material in the comments below the post. For those of you not using FB or if you are a member of the community viewing this post - the same process applies to this blog post. So that we don't double up too much and can gather a variety of plants - if you have plant material you can offer please post your offer in the comments below this post. We can then confirm with you as to whether it is something we are looking for or have a need for, and arrange to contact you privately.

We may arrange pick-up of some items as we go but will likely ask for plants to be brought to the Garden ie: at the next available Produce Swap, being the 2nd June 2012.
