Have many fresh seeds to trade. This plant is considered a noxious weed in areas that don;t frost, like some parts of CA and South FL but we do not have a problem with it here. It is hardy in zone 8B. possibly zone 8A, has survived 2 winters here and gotten bigger and prettier each year, survived this last awful winter lows of about 18-19 and many nights of low 20's. Deciduous in winter. Seeds germinate fast and the tree is pretty fast growing. Looking for other cool seeds. Would like to try Clianthus.
HAVE: Sesbania punicea (Scarlet WIsteria, Rattlebox) seeds
How about some coffee have fresh plumeria and datura and cococa
Gina, both of mine have gotten 15' tall - can I cut these back to say 4' without compromising them?
I think so, I cut mine back a few times the first few winters to make them bush out more. I got a 2nd flush of blooms this year, the tree is in bloom now.
Thanks, Gina - yes, mine was in bloom again, until heavy wind and rain beat the blooms off. I will cut it back this fall. The other one, I will cut back now.
