aka Hairy Beard Tongue

Currently Harvesting this, I am not sure but would assume it needs a period of cold weather to germinate. I'm not doing that part but if you've got the energy and want the seeds give a shout.

Want Anything native to the Indiana area.

I will have False Solomon's Seal or Solomon's Plume (Maianthemum racemosum or Smilacina racemosa) seeds in a few weeks. I also will have regular solomon seal and jack in the pulpit seeds, probably about the same time.

Hi Fay,
I am very interested in trying your Penstemon hirsutus.
I don't have any Indiana natives but please have a look at my trade list just the same.... You never know.

Well I gotta tell you a secret Brian... I'm a sucker for purple. *Salvia transsylvanica - Blue Spires* and thats a real interesting purple flowering plant you have there. It looks to be hardy to my zone too. If you want to do a swap on those two send me an email and we can work out the details. One thing I've gotta warn you folks about though, beardtongue have kinda... stinky seeds. They're not bad just smell funny. LOL Its not strong enough to make your spouse kick you out of the house but if your messing with seedpods you want to keep your hands away from your nose.

Fay,

Would be interested in the Penstemon if you have any left. Please take a look at my list and see if there's anything on there you want.

Thanks!

Hi Fay,
Would you be interested in doing a in person(s) trade?
We are having a plant swap on May 15th. All the details are in the get together forum under Central Indiana Plant Swap.
Hope to see you there.
Thanks
Scott
