Hi,

My name is Dhana, I live in Bloomington, Indiana. I love gongura, if someone could send me some seeds, that would be a great help. But I don't have any other seeds to exchange with.

Let me know if its possible.

Thanks in advance
Dhana

Just a suggestion. I used to plant the stems of Gongura after picking the leaves that we buy from local grocery stores and it came very well for me. In fact i even could distribute them free to friends more than couple of times each season. Maybe you can get still them at Northgate watermarket in Devon ave, chicago(been more than 7 years ago,so don't remember the store name correctly but it is a famous vegetable market opp or across dasaprakash). worth a visit next time you plan on visiting chicago.

Hi,

Sambandham garu, seems like we both are around the same area. Can you tell me how you planted those gongura stems (i mean, in a pot or ground) and is there any special care req.?

pl tell.

Thanks,
Arch

Hi,
Haven't browsed garden web since december. What I did was simply plant the stems(after plucking the leaves for cooking, leave a few small leaves though) into the pot, stuck them about 2 to 3 inches deep into the soil in a slightly slanted position(like a 80 degree angle. Just used Miracle Grow potting soil and watered them. you can plant as much as 10 stems too in one 9 inch pot....haven't seen gongura in local groceries lately in ashburn or herndon, try patel bros in case you happen to go to fairfax. good luck.

Hi Gora Garu, Can you send me some gongoora seeds too (are they red gongoora or green gongoora?) any variety is fine. I can send you some red thotakura seeds in return. I tried planting the stems and they did not grow. I live in Northern california.

satya,

Exactly how did you plant the stems? In what type of soil? Outside, inside, in shade, in full sun?

Satya,
Send me your address via email and I will send you the seeds. Should both red/green(white?) ones but they are all mixed up. Would love to have some thotakura seeds.

I think the safest method is to trade seedsby post with people directly instead of ordering them online as these days online shopping is really getting riskier day by day.

Thanks
Lalinya.

You can find both gongura and totakoora seeds at www.seedsofindia.com

Hello home vegetable garderners from Bharat;
While surfing the web regarding seed saving -ran into this thread.
I am interested in north indian vegetable seeds of
Tinda
Ghiya(lauki or bhopla here it goes with OPO Squash/gourd)
Tori Ridged.
for next year.

I have seeds to exchange also.

Gongura are easily rooted in the soil. Get a bunch of Gongura from near by Indian grocry store and plant some cuttings in garden soil.It may take 2 to 3 weeks for rooting.

I am new to gardening and I love gongura, and i am planning to grow some this year. I wanted to know if this plant would require lots of sunlight? I live in houston, tx and my apartment is placed in such a way that there is no direct sunlight even in the balcony.
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance...

Hi rajani,
My suggestion is get into community gardening in your area, if you do not have place or have a small yard or any other reason. Check with your city. You can grow all you want there if you get a plot.

Hi Chadmd... I just recd seeds for all these plants from www.seedsofindia.com

Chaman,
Sorry I am replying very late. I happen to read this thread and thought that I would correct one of the comment from you, Gongura is - Hibiscus cannabinus ( relative of Roselle) but not exactly roselle. A lot of people get confused with this.
Hope this helps.
