I also am looking for seeds of:
Hamamelis x intermedia 'Jelena' or other orange flowered cultivar.
These are a bit hard to collect, the seed pods are about 1/2", and when they open the seeds seem to pop out, this year I put the organza bags on some pods of a different yellow-flowered cultivar, hoping to catch them. Here in Seattle, the pods are ripening and turning brown, I don't know about other parts of the country.
I hate the grafted Witch Hazels, I want one from seed, although I know the flowers and leaves probably won't be so nice.

@Zuni are you interested in seeds for small bulbs? They wouldn't bloom the first 1-2 years but should be fine after that. You have to keep them in the pot they sprouted in for a year so that they form a bulb according to the instructions I read somewhere. I have some seeds for species tulips and grape hyacinths for sure. I may have some for snowdrops too but they may have been damaged by humidity this summer. I won't add them to the swap unless you want them. It's just easier for most people to buy the bulbs (as I wait for my crocosmia to grow a big enough bulb to plant out).

My list started off fairly short until I went through 135 pages of seeds to swap! I'm new to gardening and would like easy seeds that don't require stratification or special needs. I am Zone 9B and full sun may not be full Florida sun. I would especially like butterfly plants.
Swamp Milkweed, Scarlet or Tropical Yellow Milkweed. Butterfly Bush-Any Color, Coreopsis,
Joe Pye Weed, Tropical Hibiscus, Salvia.

Just realized I never posted the one I crafted... oops... well, here is my list pre-swap... some have already been offered and some I even secured seeds of myself and I'm offering now...

Tomato: Triple L-Crop, Opalaka, Orange Roussollini, Jersey Devil, & varieties with colors other than red

Green Beans: any bush varieties (prefer great production)

Spinach: Red Malabar

Peas: Mammoth Melting, Blue Shelling, or anything that's a great producer, Masterpiece, Little Marvel

Kale: Dinosaur

Radishes (heirloom varieties please)

Squash: Waltham Butternut, Festival, Carnival, Delicata, Honeynut, & Hubbard

Cucumber: Dragon's Egg

Herbs: Basics, Rosemary, Mints, Chives, Dill, etc.

At this point, I could probably only use more peas, but no sweat. ;) I've called dibs on so many seeds, I'm extremely grateful!
