In our old houseI planted them once in a little flower bed and never had to plant again, we were there 8 years. I'll have to stop by one day and see if they are still there. The seeds are tiny and hard to collect but the little plants are easy to move around. There is a trailing kind that is great for hanging baskets and the hummers love them. Hughes Plant Farm, about 8 miles south of Tyler on the Jacksonville Hwy., has them every Spring for around $6.00 for a big full basket. They will get droopy if they don't get plenty of water, but always perk right up after a nice drink.

Wanted to add I have some purple coneflower seeds and Prairie cone flower(Mexican Hats) seeds. While digging plants today i found a DL label so one of DL,s will be Magic Mama. Also have one iris, i call ugly iris. It's a yellow varigated. Loved the picture but hated the real thing. Will also have yellow Rustler, Both came from Schriners. All my iris are bearded iris. Also have the old fashioned purple iris,and some light blue iris,light yellow,
Would offer to bring you some rocks. but don't have the room to carry them. LOL
Vickie

Could I have some prairie flower seeds and one of each iris?
someday I hope to have the money to order all the ones my grandmother had in her bed back in Illinois but until then any and all are welcome here LOL
Phyllis
This thread is getting a bit long and chatty. I have some things I want and will bring. I will only bring them if wanted. Could we do a new list and just have wants and haves on it.
Thanks,
I'm old and CRS so make it simple for me.
DD
I agree with you DD.
