I just harvested 5 pods (hundreds?) of lilium davidii seeds. I don't know if they're true or crossed with any of my other lilies. If anyone wants some, please d-mail and I'll give you my address to send SASE. Should have enough for several people.
Also have some extra seeds of columbine (mixed), blue nigella, and light pink small-flowered malva.
Looking for seeds of delphinium grandiflorum "summer blues" - a dwarf multicolored blue variety, if anyone knows where I can find them and also a (very) bright pink digitalis.
(oops - it's summer blues I'm looking for, not summer skies.)

CLOSED: Lilium Davidii seeds + a few more for SASE
Sent you a Dmail. Thank you

I googled the delphinium and swallowtailseeds.com has 100 seeds for $2.49. They have some beaautiful varieties. I don't know anything about them but the price sounded good. Maybe that will help. I don't have any delphiniums so can't help. I'm in zone 8 which they don't seem to like, too hot and humid.

Thanks Lynn. That was sweet of you. I've given up on most delphiniums because they're pretty fickle in my yard, which doesn't get quite enough sun, but the short ones do somewhat better and don't lean or fall over. About half of my "blue butterfly" - or is it "blue mirror" (?) comes back every year (only a few plants now), but I don't want to give up because I really love them. "Summer skies " is gorgeous, and I figured if I started them from seed , it would at least be a lot cheaper to keep losing some.
Just edited above. It's delphinium grandiflorum "summer blues" I'm looking for, not as originally listed. Have found for sale in England and other European countries. The only other place I found it is Germania Seeds - 100 for 4.80 and minimum shipping of $7.80. Since I'm mostly done with my seed buying, that's a lot to pay for 1 variety of seeds, so I'm still hoping to find them elsewhere.
I agree that is too much to pay for seeds. I'll keep my eyes open for a good site.
Lynn
Thanks!
I'm closing this thread. Have several takers on the Davidii seeds.
Still looking for delphinium grandiflorum "summer blues" and seeds of bright pink digitalis if anyone has any.
Thanks.
