GREETINGS ALL,

As you all know aquiring new plants that are healthy is hard to come by. Don't even mention trying to find those "hard to find" plants. If you do find them, they cost a fourtune!!! I suggest that since were all in this together lets start sharing what we have. I know that I rather trade with you guys then donate them to the LFS or trash what I dont use.

I trim my tank every two - three weeks. It is a 150 gal show tank. Thats 4 ft long 2 feet deep and 30 inches tall.

The plants that I have in the tank for trade are;

AMMANIA GRACILIS
CABOMBA PALAEFORMIS
EUSTERALIS STELLATA - regular AND BROAD LEAF!!!
GLOSSISTIGNA ELATINOIDES
HEMIANTHUS MICRANTHEMOIDES
HETERANTHERA ZOSTERIFOLIA
HYGROPHILA CORYMBOSA (NEEDLELEAF?)
LUDWIGIA ACRUATA
LUDWIGIA INCLINATA - GROWS LIKE A WEED!!!
LUDWIGIA PALUSTRIS
LUDWIGIA REPENS X L ARCUATA
MICRANTHEMUM UMBROSUM
RICCIA FLUITANS
ROTALA MACRANDA
ROTALA WALLICHII
SAGITARIA SUBULATA
ZOSTERELLA DUBIA
BLYXA JOPONICA

ROTAL MACRANDA VAR "GREEN" FASTEST GROWING PLANT AND ITS GORGEOUS!!!

I KNOW I probably left out alot, but its a start. Let me know what you guys and gals have and willing to trade.

Looking especially for
limnophila aromatica
shinnersia rivularis

Hey Naomi, You might want to look up in your phone book for green houses or nurseries, those that might sell pond supplies as well. You would be amazed at how many plants they sell in the emersed form. On another note, Does anyone have or know anywhere I can get Limnophila aromatica? I am almost at the point where I have to order the emersed form from a green house in Canada, but would rather not.

Also Naomi, how mush is your LFS asking for the blue shrimp?

I saw you on another thread asking about the blue shrimp. I saw Naomi and took a shot you were the same person. Small World. I think that at a nursery, they would ONLY have the scientific names. I know thatLowes and Home Depot have the tags with both.

So where you talking about L. Aromatica or broad leaf Stellata that your LFS has in emerged form? Either way I would be interested in either one. Also I would not hold you to any "gurantee" if you were kind enough to ship them in the first place.

I just picked up some Ludwigia pantanale!!! A beautiful plant!!! First time I have ever seen it for sale!! If it does as well as all my other Ludwigia. I should have an abundance of that one.

L. Aromatica Anyone?

Just got some BAD news and good news. The bad news is that the ludwigia sp. "pantanal" that I ordered, will not be available for three weeks!!! But the person that I am dealing with is placing his order on Friday and I asked him if he could get L. Aromatica. He said he could but it is a special order since he claims it does not sell well where he is. If any of you want some, please let me know by Friday. I would be willing to pick it up and mail it out to you guys, but You would have to pay the shipping. What is USPS priority now? 3.95 or 4. 50? Something like that. If anyone knows, please tell me or I will go the the post office and find out. The plants should be about 4.00 a bunch, the more orders the cheaper so let me know by friday. If interested send me an email with your info and how many you want. Checks or money orders only. Thanks

I am getting the plants from a friend who imports from Signapore. He sold the last 2 before I found out, so now I have to wait three weeks. Hoping they grow like weeds and I can share with all of you. It would be great to bring the Price down here in the US. I have seen these plants and Lud. sp. Cuba selling between 40 and 50 dollars!!!!
