Title: Aquilegia McKana seeds wanted
Post by: lavenderlux on July 11, 2009, 18:19:42
Would love to grow some Aquilegia McKana hybrids (or similar long spurred variety) so can anyone help with seeds please.  To offer I have lots of the 'granny's bonnets' old fashioned aquilegias in a wide range of colours, also have wild flower seeds ox eye daisy and Meadow buttercup - don't confuse this with the weedy creeping buttercup - meadow buttercup grows to about 12-15" and whilst it selfseeds and is lovely in a wildflower meadow area, it doesn't get everywhere like the creeping buttercup.    Will also have to offer in a few weeks seeds of 'Carlin' Peas - used for dried peas.

I can let you have some fresh McKana seeds collected in the last week or so if you PM your details.  I'd love a pinch of Ox-eye Daisy seeds in return please, mine failed to germinate this year (and I lost my plants over winter).

Thank you very much for the Ox-eye Daisy seeds which arrived safely today.  And what a lovely card - such a nice idea.   ;D
