peg...here is a little known tidbit. Often times when there is no link to email a member, one can go to their member page, and click on their Journal link, and then click on send 'said' member an email, and then on the next page it is visible to members. The member has chosen to "not" receive email via GW, but has chosen to show it to members. I see that girlgardener_2007 can indeed be emailed, if'n you care to follow the links. Sue...rbb

I cant believe all the trouble all of you have had getting these to sprout. My one vine I had outside, kept throwing its seeds all over the place, before I could get to them, to collect them. I spent a small fortune on buying small amounts of seeds over the past 2 months! Single Blue,Double Blue,Single White & Double White. I nick the corner of the seed with a nail clipper,soak overnight in warm water, plant very shallow in a small pot of sterile soil,place plastic wrap over the pot and tie it on with a rubber band. Put it under the lights of my Aerogrow garden,hot lights,bright lights,and they sprout in less than 3 days,sometime 2 days! Even when I didnt get to collect them,they popped out of their dry pods, and turned up in my lawn here in Ft.Lauderdale. Cut down by the lawn mower. I am growing all of the colors NOW,in winter,in 1 gallon grow pots,till I can plant them outside in spring, and the double blue is blooming at only 1 foot tall! I couldnt believe that I had to nick and soak them,but that was the trick,along with the plastic on the pot and the bright hot light,making the soil warm. Hope by now, a year later, you all have gotten your Clitorias to sprout. I finally got my seeds, and seedlings of all the colors. Spent way to much to get so few seeds, but out of one vine, I can collect a ton of seeds from my own vine, from the so called, 'rare white' and 'double white' flowering Clitorias,...and sell them on EBay,and rip off those sellers...like they did to me:).

no luck so far? I'll be happy to bring a blue pea plant or 2 to the FW swap (hope you're gonna get to come); maybe you can over-winter them or put 'em under a full-spectrum light & get them to flower & go to seed. & I read somewhere, or maybe saw it on a gardening show, that you can put a warm fluorescent in one opening of a shop light & a cool one in the other opening, & that'll suffice for a grow light.
