Post by: leesa662000 on November 12, 2006, 18:22:42
Cornflowers (mixed)
Pumpkin (dont know the type, but are small and superior in flavour)
PARSLEY(envy),
Colorado blue spruce(picea pungens)-these are BEAUTIFUL
And Jerusalem cherry (which can be planted out after 1st year)

Any takers? - Am looking for chilli seeds in particular but am quite happy to send them free so that they are not wasted!

Woops! - also have 12 BAMBUSA TEXTILIS seeds (bamboo)

Although, dont have any instructions with them so you'd have to look up some on the internet.

I only have 1 packet of these so be quick!

I'd love the Bamboo seeds and some pumpkin seeds if possible. Have a look at my seed list below, see if there's anything you fancy. If not I'd happily send a SAE.

btw is that parsley a curly one?

cheers

I have saved pumpkin seeds from pumpkins bought this year from the supermarket. Will they suffice for next yrs plants as I know some plants are best not directly grown from fruit leftovers .

The main reasons to not grow shop-grown fruit are:
a) if you're planting tubers like potato (or taro!), you could introduce diseases
b) if you're planting seeds, they might not come true to the parent.

So as far as seeds go, if you're up for an experiment, sowing seeds is fine. (I have kiwi, lemon, kumquat, passionfruit on my kitchen windowsill at the moment.. ;)
