I was doing some research on heat tolerant plants and I came across this plant. I was wondering if anyone has seeds to trade? I have some pink hardy hibiscus, White Hardy hibiscus and a few seeds of Texas swamp hibiscus.

I do have those seeds, but no desire for Hibiscus. I can send some Lion's Tail ("Wild Daga" - "Lion's Tail" - Leonotis leonurus) for postage.

Do you prefer a bubble mailer for $2.07 plus 30 cents for the mailer, or shall I try padding a First Class envelope for 46 or 66 cents, and see if they get crushed in the rollers in the Seattle sorting-crushing machine?

Check my Have Lists for Asian greens and a few flower seeds, if you're interested. We can swap address and PayPal by TreeMail.

Hi Rick, sorry I didn't get back to you earlier. A friend is sending me some seeds next week. Thanks so much for the offer.

No problem. I had trouble germinating them the one year I tried. Maybe too moist??

Good luck with yours. I hear they get huge and prickly!

Any time I grow anything new, I also grow a square foot or so of weeds.

"Which one is the PLANT, and which are the WEEDS?"

I made a couple of new flowerbeds, and planted some coneflower and Gaillardia seeds. Unfortunately a lot of little weed seedlings sprouted so I'm not sure which ones are coneflowers and which are weeds. Its been so warm a lot of my wildflower seeds have sprouted in other parts of my yard.
