If you have something that you're on the lookout for, post it here. I know that I don't list ALL my seeds but if I knew it was a wish, it would get posted. 😀

I've been waiting for this thread and have been jotting things down as I think of them, for my mind has become a sieve with holes that grow larger with each passing year...or is it each passing day?!

Galactites tomentosa
Galactites tomentosa 'Alba'
Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus/Lemon Lily
Matricaria recutita/German Chamomile
Melothria pendula/Creeping cucumber
Rosa rugosa 'Alba'
Scabiosa stellata
Schizopetalon walkeri
Solanum pyracanthos/Porcupine Tomato
Sorghum bicolor/Broom Corn
Tagetes/Marigolds--short, small-flowered varieties in reds and yellows
Tomato 'Absinthe'
Tomato 'Black Sea Man'
Tomato 'Blue Berries'
Tomato 'Big Rainbow'
Tomato 'Carbon'
Tomato 'Malachite Box'
Tomato 'Mr. Stripey'
Tomato 'Pink Oxheart'
Tomato 'Purple Passion'
Unusual herbs...medicinal and culinary
Veronica/Speedwell--I used to have the one below grown from seed from GW's annie_nh and would love to find it again: the flowers on the always upright spikes were larger and further apart than V. spicata and it spread quickly (I think I stupidly pulled it out for that reason.) It was beautiful!
Thumb of 2018-10-23/janinilulu/8e4309
Edited to add: Found some old stock of this (collected 2011)...hoping for germination!!
Violas--any
Zinnia--looking for the most dark purple, whatever variety that may be

Like Lisa - there are some seeds I can probably nab more of if I'm aware someone wants them (or I may have from a swap and could list), so I'm happy to see this thread as well.

I'm always happy to receive:
Alyssum,
Baby Blue Eyes Nemophila menziesii
Forget me nots (blues - annual or perennial),
Flax (red or perennial blue (linum) or Bright Eyes)
Violas (any, also called Johnny Jump Up),
California Poppies (any color of the Eschscholzia californica)
Nigella (regular blue) and
Linaria (Toadflax).
I toss them onto pots with spring bulbs and everywhere I can find a spot. Can never have too many of those.

The picky part of my wish list is:
Allium unifolium (12"high decorative)
Aquilegia Columbine flabellata 'Ministar' (dwarf or other dwarf columbines)
Aubrietia (Rock Cress, prefer solid colors, looks like most commercial seed is a mix)
Convolvulus tricolor 'White Ensign'
Kalimeris incisa
Nepeta Felix (12 inches tall! May not come true from seed, I understand)
Phacelia campanularia, desert bluebells, California-bluebell
Salvia elegans Pineapple sage
Salvia gesneriiflora 'Tequila'
Salvia roemeriana 'Hot Trumpets'
Salvia Ulignosa Bog Sage (It can handle dry conditions)
Santolina chamaecyparissus dwarf grey (nana is one compact variety)
Schizanthus (any)
Verbascum Southern Charm
Verbena Tuscany White
Remember, it is dangerous to the environment and ILLEGAL in MANY states (CA is one) to mail plants/bulbs/cuttings in. Let’s all practice Do No Harm while we walk this earth and find other ways to connect to one another through gardening.

So happy to be back for a second year! I tried LOTS of different plants last year and it was great fun. The plan this year is to focus on starting more seedlings and more varieties of the types of plants that performed well for me last year, although there are several new things I want to try too.

So, I'm looking for

Petunias
Coleus
Portulaca
Morning glories
Crocosmia (I have lucifer, looking for more varieties to extend season)
Celosia, wheat straw type (I've grown and have seed for Asian Garden & Flamingo Feather, are there any others out there?)
Hens & Chicks
Geums (tall?)
Cosmos (double clicks)
Gomprhena (fireworks or any purples/pinks)
Alyssums
liatris

Mexican Petunia
Mexican Bush Sage (Salvia Leucantha)
Verbascums
Eryngium
Rosin Weed
Baptista (Alba, yellow, blue)
