Hi - I have the dbl. purple for your nigella - Doreen.

please help, i have white moonflower, soapwort, rose, pink hollyhock, seeds to trade or will pay postage thanks lovesangles

Honglee, I know it takes a lot of time to collect seed and then thereÂs the trip to the post office but I do it because I enjoy sharing them with other people. I have spent many hours collecting, packing, labeling and mailing bubble envelopes this year. I have mailed almost 50 envelopes in the last few weeks and the only cost was $1.00 for some plastic seed baggies and my time. It is actually against GardenWeb rules to ask for payment for seed and IÂm very surprised your offer hasnÂt been removed and you warned by the powers that be, or worse, banned. If you want to offer seed for postage as your post states all you have to do is email people your address and they will send you a bubble envelope with a return label and return postage inside. When you receive the envelope all you have to do is remove the label and postage from the outside and put the return postage and label on and then mail it. If you want compensation for the time you spend and the trips you have to make to the post office, you might want to try another site where it is allowed. I have actually thought of doing this myself but the enjoyment I get from giving my seed is more important than any money I could make off of them. jim_6b

You can root green ones easiest if you do them like a small tip cutting and make a little humidity dome for them. I use the tall take out chinese soup clear container. Put perlite in the bottom few inches with holes in the lid and the bottom and water it well then put the lid on and watch for roots. When you start seeing them crack the lid open a little more each day until its off then you can transfer it to a little pot. You can use the little mini greenhouse things too but you might want to do it in a bright window if its really hot outside or at least in the shade. If they are pretty firm and not wimpy green you won't need to lid but use rooting hormone on the green ones. Its not too late to start seeds as long as you can keep them growing over the winter the first year.
