jaybirdy,

Georgia Vines has them, 8 seeds for $4.50. Don't know what ebay is asking. I purchased a packet of seed from Georgia Vines but already have them in damp coffee filter in fridge. I should have saved a few to share but too late now. Will harvest seed this fall if successful in growing the vine.

Doesn't help you now, I know, but if you can't find a trader now and don't wish to pay the high price of seed, watch in the fall for someone to have seed for trade.

Looks like an interesting vine and of course, good for a butterfly garden. Much of my small garden is light or high shade so really hope the seed germinates and I can be successful in growing it.

Mary

Thanks Mary. Georgia Vines on E-bay was the only place I could find selling them too.I might end up buying them there because I want them that bad.....John (jaybirdy)
