Seed Pkg Choc MG

I finally got around to scanning this. Forgive me as my scanner is fickle and a pain to use. LOL

Cool you made it on to the slide show.....
that seed packet is pretty enough to frame.

Pretty!!! Where can I find this from???

WoW! Those are pretty cool
not able to find any like that around here. Did you order them?

I think these may be the same as rose silk?

Livingston only sells to the trade or retail. I bought them at a local farmers market. I have been in contact with the owner of Livinston and hoping they may someday soon offer a website for sales to the home gardener. Keep your fingers crossed!!

Badseed,

WOW! Thank you for finding that. I noticed that deblynn had found one on the internet, but that one did not have the white border. It was just as beautiful, though. I can't wait for these to take off. Unfortunately I wont get any blooms until late August in zone 5.

Tell me, have you planted these?

For others interested in what deblynn has found, check out the other thread and visit the link she posted. http://davesgarden.com/showthread/247348.html

If anyone is interested, there is a garden shop near where I work that sells these. I picked up a pack for one member here, they are $2.25 a pack, and they still had some late last week. E-mail me privately if you are interested, I wouldn't mind making another trip over there (like I need an excuse to spend my lunch hour at a garden shop!).

Ok, I thought I had seen them for sale somewhere. Thompson-Morgan has them, called 'Imperialis Chocolate'. When I looked in Park Seed the yours looks like their 'Rose Silk'. The 2 definately don't look alike. T/M's is a chocolate with a white center, Park Seed is chocolate with white edges. So the question becomes, which is the chocolate. I think they both might be with a variation. Any thoughts on this??

That was me Debbie, Mine are about 4
inches tall now. Hopefully i will have
seeds to share this fall. Just got my
package out and it says chocolate from
Livingston seed co. and they are pictured
chocolate with the white edges.

I know this is an old thread...but I grew these this past summer, and this is what they looked like!

They look very healthy, Sandy, nice photo!

This is my Rose Silk.

Seedsower and Butterflychaster, they are beautiful. One of my favorites. Thanks for posting them.

I bought my Livingston's seeds from Ace Hardware.
