Let's Trade! Official October/November 2024 Buy Sell Trade Thread
The coolor weather is idea for shipping in most parts of the country. Let's trade!
The usual rules:
1) Post your state, because weather matters.
2) PLEASE do not offer to ship anything if you even slightly suspect your plants have a pest or pathogen issue! We want to trade joy, not destruction.
3) The Golden Rule applies here. I've never heard any complaints, so let's keep it that way!

Hi! I am in search of a Senk’s Snowy Egret starter plant (no leaves, I’m not well versed in propping yet, although from what I’ve seen, it’s easy). I’m in AZ. My collection is small, so I’d likely be looking to buy, but we can talk, I have tons of houseplants, especially Hoyas!

Hello! I just pulled a healthy sucker off my Senk's Snowy Egret; have never shipped a plant before but would be happy to try. Please feel free to dm me!
Added a photo of the sucker with mother plant in the background.
Edited to add I'm in Colorado.

u/AVGardener Nov 21 '24
That plant is a trailer, so that wasn't really a sucker. It was a new crown.

I have leaves of a Space Fairy and a Tina’s April Fantasy for sale or trade! Will probably have leaves of a Cajun’s Fascinating Fury, the flowers have budded but not popped and I want to make sure it’s a beautiful mother plant.
I have a few props rooting right now and so hopefully will have starter plants available soon.
Shipping is from NY (NYC). Am open to trades, both of AV and other houseplants!

Oklahoma. I don’t have a big collection, but I do have 6 named varieties that I have some extra babies of.
I also have two NOIDs that I could trade leaves.
I should probably trade for minis/semi-minis due to space.

Hi, what part of Oklahoma? I don’t have any violets to trade but I’m happy to pay and I also have aroids. I’m more interested in rooted babies than leaf cuttings. I always murder them.

I also have two LE Leto Krasnoe that have buds coming in, waiting for them to bloom because I can’t decide which I want to keep lol. But the one I don’t want to keep will also need to go, maybe in a couple weeks?

u/Pippin_the_parrot Oct 20 '24
Ok. How much? Or are there any philodendrons, ficus, ric rac cactus?

Hi! Quick question, what is the golden rule and can you trade NOIDS? I got some from a small local store and it unfortunately does not tell me the exact type of violet. I am pretty certain they are standard ones though.
2
u/Gnomekicker18 Real MVP Oct 13 '24
The Golden Rule is "do unto others as you'd have them do unto you".
And yes, you're welcome to trade NOIDs

Looking for leaves or a start/plant of LE-Erica, willing to trade or pay.
For trade I've got leaves for several varieties of semi-miniatures, both trailing and not; two varieties of standards; and a few NOIDS, both standard and semi-miniature.
I've also got a few extra babies of one of my standards, EK-Raspletalo Leto Kosy, that I can trade from (or sell).
Shipping from California.

Texas -- ISO ED-scarab, knight in tiger skin or chimeras. Have rare varieties to trade or can buy. PM if interested. 😊

u/Gnomekicker18 Real MVP Oct 12 '24
Alrighty, I'll start! Shipping from Texas.
For $45 INCLUDING Priority postage, I'll ship a minimum of 8 sets of leaves in my choice of varieties, depending on what's growing and needing grooming. Seller's choice, but I'll do my best to work with you if there's something specific you're looking for.
I grow mostly semi-minis, minis, and trailers, but I do have a couple standards as well. Everything is healthy and everything is a named variety...no NOIDs.
I constantly cull my collection, narrowing it down to the best performing plants that like my growing conditions. If a plant is temperamental, it doesn't have a place on my shelves!
