CLOSED: Have Chinease lantern roots.........

Hi , I am pulling up lots of chinease lantern roots. They spread alot alot to the point some people consider them to be invasive. These guys are very hardy and spread by long underground roots. Tempt me if your interested or?????

Babs,

I'm definitely interested. This is the Physallis alken...(sp) type of Chinese lantern?

D-mail me. I have a number of hardy unusual edibles that would likely survive there.

What exact chinese latern do you have? Know the latin name or have a picture?

I'm interested, but not sure if I have anything you would want, still have a few of the no name iris. Susan

I would love to have some, but what kind of stuff might you be looking for??

Hi, the lanterns my mom planted years and years ago. They have really spread thru the yard. My mother has since past away, and I don't know the latin name of what these are. They grow about a foot tall {or even a little taller} have white flowers and in the fall they have orange lanterns,over an inch big. Inside the paperish lantern there is a orange seed ball about the size of a small grape. People use the dried lanterns sometimes in flower arrangements. The spread by underground runners,popping up all over the place. I'd send you abunch of roots and believe me .....you'll get plants off of them. I'm interested in trading for most anything. Please dmail me with your trade offer..........thank you...........b

I love my chinese lanterns,and I grow them in a big container! Also easy to start from cuttings by rooting in water. They root fast! Yes, they are very invasive, so be careful where you put them! Would be great for a hill that needs protection from erosion.

Do u have enough to do an SASBE?

Please do not send them anywhere near Florida. LOL

Hi everyone, It might snow here tonite and its been kinda cold {in the low 30s} so I most likely won't get into the yard till the weekend and then I'll see how much roots are there to dig up.I like to dig them up and send them off right away--same day.I'll keep everyone posted on how the weather goes here........................b

Today I have received the package, roots are in great conditions.. Thank you sooooo much.
