Looking for seeds. I don't have anything to trade. Will gladly send a SASE? I'm looking for light pink, purple, light purple, that giant crape myrtle -the one that gets really tall, and red rocket. Thanks,

cliff :)

Cliff,
I have seeds on my crape myrtles, but they aren't ripe yet. I have red rocket, lipan (light purple), rhapsody in pink (very light pink), catawba (dark purple), burgundy cotton (white) and another 6 or 7 varieties. I don't have the large tree (L. speciosa), but I'm looking for a small plant myself. I'm not sure how long the seeds take to ripen, but I think it will be another month or two at least.
