Yesterday I found this seed packet here in Morocco, which came from Milano, Italy. It's labelled wrong because these are not ipomea coccinea as indicated on the packet, but purpurea. I am enthralled by the colour of the red in combination with the white going quite a bit into the bloom.

Would anybody be interested in organizing a grow-out in the US. The conditions would be to share the red ones with me and the organizer (if he/she is interested in the red ones...) because I definitely would want them for future crossings.

As we all know paper is patient and I somehow distrust the red colour of the print, but you never know many surprises have come out of mislabelled seed packets...

Please gmail me. First serious person will get the packet.
