I have canary climber or glory vine (Tresco mix ) seeds that I would trade for some of your Purple cuphea (Cuphea lanceolata) seeds.
Please take a look at my list I may have something else you might like to have instead. PLMK

Lisa,
I do prefer seeds, it is a lot more cheaper to send since we have to use express delivery for living plants, crossing the border means phytosanitary certificate or confiscating risk. But if you want my seeds so much you want to go through that, let me know!

Darmadoll, I do offer glory vine on my trade list but I am interested in your chinese houses, and green kangaroo paw anigozanthos manglessii.

Zarcanat

I was going to ask that.....I will keep an eye out for seeds though...I grow plants for the hummingbirds around here too...and I have several of the plants you have listed. Hopefully...I can get some seed to you soon. I'll keep you posted. Sorry I couldn't help ya this time :-)

I will be pleased to keep some seed for you Lisa.

zarcanat, I have an extra Alyogyne huegelii plant if you are interested in. I also have a plant of a firecracker or Cuphea....not sure which one.
:) Donna

I have russelia and hamelia--can you dmail me with a link to the what the seeds look like? Russelia does reseed in my garden (although not too frequently so I know I probably have lots of seeds of it--they must be very small. We mostly propogate by cuttings down here. I also have turks cap and porterweed (this has not set seeds yet, just starting to bloom down here--give me till Oct. You are aware that hamelia is a very tender perennial and freezes to the ground every year even in Houston? Russelia is too--but never dies here. I have rock rose-pavonia lasiopetala seeds now. Also have tecoma stans var goldstar(esperanza or yellow bells--hummers love them down here) seeds now and turks cap. Can you dmail me? I'm interested in black and blue sage, california fushia, and purple cuphea.

Hello Donna, we will work it out by D-mail.

Hello DJM, I am very interested, I will try to find pictures of the seeds mentionned to help you.

I everybody, Here is a nice site for searching information on seeds: http://www.theseedsite.co.uk/

Thanks zarcanat. That link really helped. :-)

You are very welcomed Lisa!

thanks for the link but I already knew about that site--no help for hamalia or russelia seed...I'm sure I must have them just not sure what to look for. Have got a friend in Corpus that's "researching" our problem at their arboritum (sp?). Hamalia is usually propagated by stem cuttings. Both are very easy to root but realize this is going to be a problem shipping to you...give me a couple of days here....

zarcanat,
I will check in the morning to make sure I have the green kangaroo paw anigozanthos manglessii snd will d-mail you ! Will gladly trade for the Purple cuphea!
Have a great evening!

Great evening too!

Hi Zarcanat,
I have some cuphea 'firefly' and some coral bean for some of your purple cuphea and monkey flower if you are still looking to trade.
LMK,Thanks, Ronnie

Ronnie
Oh yes! I wanted the coral beans so desperately!!! cuphea 'firefly' is an hybrid so it wont come true to seed but I am willing to try your seeds anyway, I might have a nice surprise! I am sending you a D-mail.

I found some leftovers from this spring that I am willing to offer; I hadded them to the list.
