Marcy that is too cool!! I didn't expect such a generous offer - of course I will send you money for shipping. I don't think he was planning on growing them, of course who can say.....he just loves showing his school mates cool and unusual things.

We went to Disney land 2 years ago in February, and he brought home a bag full of palm bark, some kind of cone (pine, or acorn?), and rocks, and shells, and....and....and..... HA! My mother of course encouraged him endlessly, she really is a great grandma, but boy did his bag STINK when we got home and I was washing things out.

He did con a nursery grower into giving him a stephanotis seed pod a year ago, and he did manage to germinated all of his seeds!! They are all still growing together in a pot, and are pretty good sized. I need to see if I can find a picture. I was afraid to separate them, as I had, and still have no idea what I am doing with seeds! He was planning to train them on a topiary frame that came in to Bryan's work damaged, but the vendor credit manager threw it away before Logan could get to it! Kind of a relief as the frame was huge, and his seedlings not so much!!
