WANTED: rose pink, sabatia angularis

16 years ago

I have plenty of seeds. I've never grown them cultivated. I plan to try. I dont see how such a lovely annual can compete in such a harsh enviroment as they do. I've never traded seeds on this site. Do I post my e-mail adress?

I see I posted my message in the wanted not the HAVE message. I'll try to figure this out.

Hello! Just go back and post under have instead. Also it would be a help if you went back to the edit my page and clicked where you could see your email addy. And if I knew what you may be looking for I would like to possibly trade for the rose pink. You answered a post on the Indian Pink but no way to email you back! Maybe if you have some of the Indian Pink come spring we could trade plants! I got a few seeds to wintersow but will have to wait to see how they do. Try to list a few things you would like or have and it will help with trading. Thanks, Melinda

Hi, Barb - I am interested in: Agrimony Callicarpa americana Cimicifuga racemosa (I grew one from seed, slow growing, hasn't flowered yet, and I'm moving...) Desmodium canadense Lobelia cardinalis, and Ludwigia alternifolia (landscapers who tidied up my yard for selling house destroyed mine, waah...) Please see if there's anything on my list this year you'd like, and let me know if you'd like to trade. Thanks, Kim P.S. Your granddaughter is adorable!

Fantastic list of seeds! I think it is just great that you have focused your life on nature at such a young age. I too would love to have 10 (maybe 5) acres someday to plant a wonderland of natives plants, and am already doing that on 1.25 acres. Difference is, my interest didn't come into sharp focus until age 45. :) There are quite a few seeds on this list I am interested in, and I checked your want list and I have a few on that list. Maybe we can do a trade this fall? Just a note - on your want list is Cynanchum louiseae - this is an extremely invasive non-native vine that is becoming a serious problem in the Northeast US. And it has the additional problem that Monarch butterflies will "sense" it is in the Milkweed family, lay eggs on it, and then it will kill the caterpillars because it is toxic to Monarch larvae.

What a pretty plant! They don't grow in the Northwest, but I found the site below that might help. About midway down the page, they have a brief paragraph on propagation. I'm not certain I'd want to drink it as a tea as the website mentions... Here is a link that might be useful: Plants For A Future--Sabatia angularis

Hello Melinda, I have too many seeds to start already so I'm not looking for anything else.
I came across these rose pinks last summer. It took me a while to figure what they were. They were 28" tall and full of brite pink flowers. They were such big plants by early July and they have such tiny seeds it seems incredible. I just thought that I'd share some with anyone wanting to try them. A postage stamp and a few seeds I can spare. - Jim
