HAVE: *RARE * Yellow Morning Glory (ipomoea ochracea)

Please read the list of wanted items below carefully. I am not offering or trading for anything else at this time.

Am offering up four trades of three dozen seeds each of this extremely rare Yellow Morning Glory vine (ipomoea ochracea). These seeds originated from Reunion Island (west of Madagascar) and I have been growing them for several years now. You will not find these seeds for sale in any mail order catalog - at least none that I'm aware of :o)

I have several vines growing around the yard that are 1 to 3 years old. They put out lots of foliage in April and start blooming in the fall - late September or October and continue to bloom throughout Spring and Summer - well in south Texas anyway :o) They are prolific bloomers.

The tendrils on this species grow extremely long! I have found vines running all along my fence and several tendrils snuck under my side gate and latched onto another trellis I have about twenty feet from the main stalk. I haven't tried letting these grow up the telephone pole...but it is a thought!!!

** Am looking for ROOTED cuttings or saplings of:

- Black Knight or Royal Red buddleia (butterfly bush)
- or - any variety of cherry tree
- or - paw paw

Please send D-mail if interested.

Cat, I have SEEDS for pawpaw, which is a native tree in our state.

I have a sapling of Black Knight that I'd be happy to dig when the ground unfreezes.. but that won't be for a good month or so depending on how long it takes for the winter to disperse. I'd love to grow your morning glory if you can possibly wait that long ;)

Cat,
I can try to root some cuttings from my dwarf North Cherry tree for you if you are interested. I bought an aero type propagator I have not yet put to use.
Thanks,
