No, sorry Shannon, I don't. I do have some plants in my yard, but I didn't save any seeds. I usually deadhead them.

I wintersowed them once. A few sprouted and did well, now growing in my yard for 6 or 7 years.

Have you thought to check the lists to see if anyone has hibiscus to trade?

Oh, look. Piksihk lists Texas Star seeds as available for trade.

I just went to the database and looked up Texas Star hibiscus. Here:

And then just click on the link that shows "1 member has this plant."
That will take you to the list that shows who has what.
Click on her member name and that will take you to her profile page where you can either send her a T-mail or just take a peek at her list of haves and wants.
Does that make sense?

Uh, oh, I may have to add those to my list of goodies to try! Do you get buried in snow in the winter where you are? My entire garden area is under about 3 feet of snow right now. Rolling my eyes.

Shannon got your tree mail with address & your seeds are in an envelope to be mailed this afternoon when we pick up our son from school.


Woofie--we have traded seeds awhile ago but I can't find your address anymore Sad
Send me a tree mail with your address and I will be happy to send some hardy hibiscus seeds to you also!
We have not gotten much as far as cumulation of snow--just been so darn right frigid out there & so windy--that wind chill is horrible!!

Will try to find a picture of the ones I'm sending and post it!
