Am wanting bulk amounts of flower seeds that provide a good nectar source for butterflies. Flowers like cosmos, zinnias, mist flower, milkweed (not milkweed vine), salvia, tithonia, columbine and purple coneflower.
Bulk amount means a 6x6 inch ziplock baggies of common and prolific seeds like zinnias, mist flower and purple coneflower. For other smaller seeds like columbine, salvia, tithonia etc. a 2x3 inch baggie. I don't mind whole seed heads or chaff as I want to throw them all out into the back pastures.
If you have other seeds that are good nectar sources or larval hosts for butterflies or moths you want to trade away let me know!
I can trade fresh cuttings of Chalice Vine (solandra maxima/grandiflora) that are about 10-12" long http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/31443/
or small 3-5" ROOTED cuttings of Mexican Flame Vine (senecio confusus).

or orange canna rhizomes - am not sure what variety it is but they grow tall - about 6 feet or so and bloom solid orange. The leaves are solid green. They look like this canna. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/95629/
D-mail me if interested.

WANT: Nectar seeds for Chalice Vine / Mexican Flame Vine etc
cat, i can gather all of the mist flower seed heads that are left out there. they have just remained on the plants outside. also, there are some scarlet milkweed pods out there too. i don't know how many there are but i can send what i have. no trade necessary unless you have milkweed VINE seeds. lol barb
