Got my Lillys from a side trade I did with Raven1. Thanks a bunch.

Got my Address Labels from Swtbtrcup Just love them. She does a great job.

Sorry I didn't announce yesterday it was kinda hectic here. We had a major storm that knocked out our electric at 2 pm and we didn't get it back on until 5 am this morning. UGh my poor eggs in my dickey. It got down to 86 I am worried most of them drowned. All of my Paint silkie eggs were in there. I ran to walmart and got a power inverter but I didn't get back until 8 pm.

Here are the two swap aprons I made. I should have ironed them but I was rushing out to the post office.

Ok so now that I know they are acceptable plants how many iris bulbs would I need? Also have excess orange daylillies how do you divide them and how many of those would equal a swap? Last question, good photo hosting site as I can't upload pics to Byc from my iPhone which is the only Internet I have now. Can I swap fox pups? I have an excessive amount and would really like to get rid of them. Lol, surely someone could use them. Then their mommies wouldn't need to eat my chickens.

Depending on how big the iris rhizomes are, I'd say 3-5. Cut the leaves back to make a fan shape. It won't hurt them, and will make packing easier!

On the orange daylilies, maybe 2 fans, if they are decent size. 3-4 if they're small. A fan is when you dig them up and divide them, and each individual plant makes a fan shape with it's leaves.

For the photos, I use Photoshop. Not sure what kind of phone you have, but they have an iPhone app that is super easy!!

Question on your irises, were those solid purple, or splashy on the falls?
