- Emilia (Tassel Flower)

- Heliotrope

Thanks!

Hey Bev, I have Texas Bluebonnet growing in our field. I didn't collect any seeds from it this past year but if you don't get any in a trade let me know and I will be sure to get some this year.

P.S. did the shooting star (daisy) that I sent you last year grow, mine did very poorly (terrible year here) so I ordered some new seeds. If they didn't grow I can save more and send some too. Cheryl

Hi Cheryl, So far you're the only responder to my post. re: shooting star, that was the Thymophylla, right? I didn't start it last year-- just too much stuff and I ran out of room. I plan to try it this year, though. The seeds, if I get any, can be your back-up source.
