I have Hairy Balls Plant seeds (Asclepias physocarpa) to trade. This has become my favorite plant. It's easy to grow from seed, I winter sow mine. And contrary to the info, mine has gown to 7+ feet this year, even with our drought.

Looking for Asclepias, Agastache, Salvia, Brugmansia, or Datura seeds.

Alice....Our area is on fire and we may have to evacuate, but I would like some of the physocarpa seed if you have any left...You can tell where my priorities are......fire is fire, but seed is SEED! I have asclepias curassavica 'Wildfire" (is that apropos,or what?) to trade if you're interested, please save some for me. Taking the seed with me!
Sherry
We have to have our priorities in order. Pets, plants, husband (after all he CAN save himself), house stuff.
Sherry,
Don't worry, I'll save some for you.
Hope you don't have to evacuate!

I would love some of the "Hairy Balls" asclepias seed. I grew this years ago (and, yes, it was referred to as "Hairy Balls" then also!!! LOL) but started it late and never got seeds...
I have datura, and some brug, seeds.
TTYS,
Jan

Great thread title! Did you notice that "views" outnumber "replies" by more than x10?
I'd love to trade for your A. physocarpa! I'm hoping I can find something you don't already/still have from me from last year's WS swap... I've got fresh seeds of Agastache 'Honey Bee Blue' & 'Honey Bee White', Salvia nemorosa 'Caradonna' & Salvia lyrata 'Purple Knockout', a cream colored Asclepis incarnata that might have been from 'Ice Ballet' seeds, and there are some older seeds in my stash of a bright orange Asclepias curassavica. I also have Bronze Fennel if your butterfly garden is missing it.
Alice, we have had to evacuate. Thought our house was gone, as of a few minutes ago we thought it was gone, but looks as though it's still there. Thank you.
Sherry
Oh, Sherry... I don't have the words... but you & yours are in my thoughts and prayers, and I'm glad you're safely out of the path of the blaze.
Did you notice that the title of the thread has changed? Oh, my.
Sherry, that's REALLY good news about your house, happy to hear you're alright.
Critter, apparently the thread title was drawing some inappropriate comments (which I asked to be deleted) and 'the powers that be' thought it best to change it.
I don't know... that's what I call the plant, that's one of the names the plant files has it listed as... and it what it looks like.
Alice
Well. we all need a litle humor in our lives anyway!
LOL Alice!!! I would love some hairy balls or Asclepias physocarpa as the PTB would prefer. I have Datura seeds Double yellow, purple and triple white all of the Metel var.

Caren

Caren, sent you a dmail.
Moretz, yours is in the mail also, thanks.
Alice
Alice, I have some small Brugs plants (Dr.Seuss X Rothkirch) I'd love to trade for some Hairy Balls. Don
Don, sent you a dmail.
Beebe, I've only grown the Asclepias physocarpa, but there doesn't appear to be much difference between them from the photo's.
According to the info provided in the plant files, A. physocarpa is hardy to zone 6 and the A. fruticosa is only hardy in zones 10 and higher.
Alice
Alice...so, would you like some of the asclepias curassavica 'Wildfire'? PLMK...thanks, Sherry
Alice, if you promise not to poison yourself due to not wearing gloves while handling the seeds or any part of the plant, i have seed for a gorious brug called Angel Trumpet (Brugmansia).
