Fri, August 17, 2007 - 7:54 AMfabulous - I'll send out some feelers in my plant people world for ya...I may have the aristolochia so I'll check my seeds this week...I used to grow that clitoria, and it has such fabulous flowers, but alas it never grew too well, and the deer finished it off one year.

Wed, October 24, 2007 - 6:05 AMNot meaning to criticize, but are you aware that Cymbalaria does have weedy tendencies, right? Namely, it self-sows freely.

plants.usda.gov/java/profile (plants.usda.gov appeared to be down at the time of this reply, but it usually is really good for researching the distributions of most given plants in North America)
Again, I don't intend any insult, just making sure you're aware of the potential of this plant. Especially in that gardening Eden of Portland!
Cheers. -

Tue, October 23, 2007 - 5:24 PMI was just procrastinating on some homework, and noticed that, if you mean phaseolus coccineus, not phaseolus coccenius (which I couldn't find) you're talking about red runner beans, of which I have tons of seeds and would be more than happy to share.
