| This is a fascinating Mucuna vine from south China and grows in Guangzhou and the Hong Kong area. The flowers are in trusses of white and are breathtakingly beautiful. Does anyone know of a seed source for this beauty? I emailed the Hong Kong Gardening Society for a source, but never heard from them.
Would be very grateful for any leads. Thanks, Masrcelo |

| I haven't seen a seed source or plant source from any of the usual vendors here. Nor did I see any blooming during the few hikes I took this spring. But I do have my eyes open for them. |

| OK, Marcelo has sent me four fresh seeds. Now how do I germinate them? They are very big, but not as hard-coated as I expected. I nicked two and soaked them in water for a day but they didn't swell. Any ideas? Thanks. -Ron- |

| Never mind. The seeds were too old. |
