The plant is listed as a biennial/ perennial so perhaps that has some bearing on
transplanting. Hope this helps.

Goatweed
Roman nettle

I have seeds from Aristolochia baetica, host plant for the black swallowtail, It's a hardy vine here in Pa zone 6.

Anderson, IN(Zone 6a)

Buttoneer Have seeds of several things , only few match your want list ,
Right at the moment A blue morning glory everyone has and a red climber seeds ,
We get the little white morning glories the invaders supposedly ....
I'm sure if I look I might find something
What might you like ,?
and thank you for offering
I might try growing that on one of the trees...

Carlisle, PA(Zone 6b)

I also have golden ragweed. Also called Golden groundsel.

Looking for Ipomoea pes caprae and any other kind of morning glory. Tell me about the little
white morning glories you have. Looking for anything in the pea family.

Anderson, IN(Zone 6a)

Buttoneer someone did send me some Golden Groundsel
Other than Lupine and some Wild clover you see everyday as weeds ,
I still have a few alfalfa seeds , shortly though , June July blooming sweet pea , My nephews have that , I might be able to get a few seed pods . not sure ,
Morning glory is the same you see growing out of old concrete with white blooms , you know telephone poles and places as that .
There is Moonflower in bloom next door , when it is done I could ask about seeds , I could get a few locust tree seeds possibly , I just have to put any together as I do and see ..
My sweet peas failed this year ..
I don"t know if any of my regular pea seeds are any good or not ,,
I will have to look again to see if any Astragalus (pea family vetch) seeds are in my storage ..
Lots of beans more or less, A few ,most are a will have (their growing currently )

Anderson, IN(Zone 6a)

Also the little tiny dwarf wild or miniature morning glory grows here ,, like everywhere ..white bloom , really tiny bloom ..
