I thought I had wild spearmint growing by our little orchard, but I think it gets mowed down every time we mow. I know mint spreads like wild fire, so if you have lots to get rid of, I'll take it.

Would love some starters to plant here. I had it years ago, but never took it with me in previous moves.

Let me know what you would like in return. I have other herbs, a lot of books already up for barter, so just e-mail me or post if you want something specific.

I have a good healthy patch of Chocolate Mint. Would you like some?
I also have a good patch of Lemon Balm if you'd like some too. I can
send you some of both.

Andrea, I do have lemon balm, but I have not heard of chocolate mint. I would love to try it.

Great! Send me your address via MJF/e-mail. Just put CHOC MINT in big letters. It'll probably be next wk before I can get this out to you. I'll be out of town this week.

Chocolate mint is awesome! I have some too! It's in the peppermint line- spicy but oh so yummy! :) I love making a tea of half chocolate mint and have peppermint.

Does anyone have any Johnny Jump-Up Seeds or Hummingbird Vine (many times referred to as Friendship Vine) Seeds. I'll swap. Actually I'm game to swap for anything. Make an offer.
I have Chocolate Mint and Lemon Balm.
Blessings,
Andrea

For anyone I owe back on a barter, please look at the books I have up for barter to see if you'd like one or more of those. :)

Ohhh, the chocolate mint smells wonderful, just like chocolate!
I also have had pineapple mint that smells sooo good too! I haven't checked my yard yet but I will bet it is still out there if anyone is interested.

Andrea,

I don't have johnny jump ups but I do have wild violets and I also have lots of oxalis, i think its this one http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1240/. Some people think these are invasive but I think they are both beautiful. I would be interested in both your chocolate mint and the lemon balm.

I'd be interested in your pineapple mint. I tried to email you, but there was no link to your email. =/

I have all kinds of handmade things to barter with. Let me know if you are interested.

I hope it is what you wanted! I really don;t need anything in return, but if you really want you can surprise me! I am pretty easy to make happy. I cook, crochet, just started soapmaking, I love to read...it makes it easy for my husband to buy me gifts! LOL!
