If you've got some seeds, I'll trade you. I've got a short list because i don't have too much planted here.

I went to a swap over the weekend, and a generous lady (thanks abarbie4me2) there gave me a bunch of light pink hardy hibiscus seeds. If you're still looking for them, send me your addy, and I'll send you some as pay it forward :)

Kachana,

I'm embarrassed that I haven't been on the GW since I made that posting. Other commitments had me wrestled to the ground. If I'm not too late, I'd be glad to trade some seeds with you. I've got some that I could send you this Spring.

Xtal,

Well, I'm embarrassed that I haven't been one here forever too. I'm afraid I already gave all the seeds away. The few ones I had left, I tried to germinate but they didn't grow for me. However, my neighbor gave me some seeds of white Texas Star hibiscus from her yards last fall. You are welcome to have some. Email me if you're interested :)
