Hi,

I've gone thru my gathered seeds and realize I have some extra. Email me if you would like a small packet of what is listed below in return for a self-addressed, self-stamped envelope.

Here are the high-falutin names for what I've got:

Big red lobelia (perennial)

Tall violet pink cleome

Pinky-greeny-choclate coleus

Purple coneflower (perennial)

White obedience plant (perennial)(can be invasive)

Pink obedience plant(ditto)(ditto)

Joe Pye weed (perennial)(semi-ditto)

Woodland tabacco, nicotina sylvestris (self-seeds copiously)

Varigated porclein vine (the non-variegated type is invasive, some people damn the whole species but Ken Druse, who I think would know, likes this one.)

Asian or Oriental lily (perennial)

All of these work in bright shade or part shade with some moisture. Some of the really small seeds have not been cleaned from their pods since, for a novice like me, cleaning them often means losing some. What I do in these cases is just crumble up the seedhead into the seed-starting mix.

Happy Gardening,

Springcherry
