acanthus bears breeches

Does anyone have seeds of this or a root to share?? Or can someone tell me where the seeds are exactly and how to harvest them if I can find someone who has one???

I just read that the fruit is an Oval Green Capsule that explodes throwing seeds about 10 meters. Found this at B & T seeds
....Good Luck,

I'm also hoping to find these seeds.
If someone has enough... maybe I can trade for some too?

Thanks, Carole ; )

I am trading with someone from England, so should have them in the next 2 weeks. I will let you know if I have enough to share.

Are they invasie in warmer climates?

I have some in the back,will look tomorrow,I'll get you a pic,I will open one to see if they look good,then I will swap some,this is the first time it bloomed,after 3 yrs,it was well worth the wait!I'm not sure why,but the white seems luminescent.
Oh now that I think of it, mine is Acanthus spinnosus.

That is beautiful. Save all the seeds you can. I never could understand why very few people seem to raise these (altho have said they are invasive) but hardly anyone at all says they have them or list them for trade even and a few companies sell them at outlandish prices.Have had one dear kind person offer me a root but lets get this one going round if folks have room and are not worried about their possible invasiviness.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh ok, nice :-)

Gotta get some of that,this plant really makes a statement......It says"gimme lots of room""lol
****goin' searching for seed*****
Catch y'all later,shirley >^,,^< SB

I'd like to see this in bloom rootdoc:-)
