Thanks for the links Dan. Anything worth having is a battle I suppose...

Maca is a root used by the Inca Indians for a variety of reasons including hormone balance. If you do a search on maca supplement, you can find a lot of information on it. I don't recall everything I read except the part that it is suppose to relieve hot flashes. I just started yeterday on them so will post again in a week or so and let everyone know if it works or not. Just thought maybe someone else has tried it.

Lauren, congratulations, cool seeds! I don't have any of these, have to take a closer look at them, would like to hear how Maca and Purple Radish will do for you. What do you know about the Japanese Unique Purple Radish? I love radishes, right now I'm waiting on the last seed pods to dry on my Green Misato radishes. Can't trade it yet, have to grow some to check that the seeds are Ok. But it's a nice shorter daikon radish, can be grown in deep pots. If you like popcorn, from last year I have Squirrel tooth (Tom Thumb) Popcorn, a short variety. I'm still browsing through the WGS's catalog. Here is some excerpt from it: A Botanical Wonder Orach is a species of many wonders. Aside from its dayglow pigments and iridescent reflectance, it sometimes changes color as it grows. Seeds from purple or magenta kinds may begin growth with their parent's color, then turn green or gold spontaneously at some point before flowering. This trait variability within an individual plant is also expressed in the seeds, which may be either small black, dormant, and indigestible, or large, tan, fast sprouting, and nutritious. We only wish to sell the tan seeds for planting, so we try to clean out the black ones by size. Regardless of which color seed is planted, the off-spring will bear both kinds of seeds. Orach, quinoa, and huauzontle all have the same (high) nutritional profile in their seeds. Strangely, all share the same chromosomes, except orach is a hexaploid (6n), meaning all of its cells contain 3 pairs of normal chromosomes, quinoa is tetraploid (4n), and huauzontle, diploid (2n), the more normal genetic state. Each is native to a different continent, and each was independently domesticated by different cultures. What a plant. I got a small black orach seed, so it will be interesting. I dug through my seed stash and found Red Royal Quinoa, will be planting these for greens (or whatever color it will come out :) These are the seeds I received from WGS: Superior Licorice Korean Mint Golden Kin Tsai Celery Goldilocks Rudbeckia In the celery packet I found two more orach seeds (small black) and one more mystery seed.

Hello Flora lovers. I'm in the tropics, so i have lots of tropical seeds like guanabana, passiflora, star apple, guavas, purple onion seeds and a large array of heliconia rhizomes. I am looking for sarcophypte sanguinea, lavenders, maca and mandragora officinalis. But I'm happy to trade for your Tomatillos too. Add me on whatsapp. 33 0590 690 920011
