Floridian Lutz, FL (Zone 9b) October 28, 2002 07:26 PM Post #396060 I'm trying to grow the plant now...I just collected it from an abandoned house in central Florida. Will look for seeds when I'm up there again in a couple of weeks. It sure is pretty isn't it? jmtoney October 28, 2002 08:46 PM Post #396113 I have this plant in my yard in MS. It is beautiful!! I noticed on another site that the plant is supposed to be a annual. But the lady that gave me this one, gave me seedlings that she says comes back every year! I guess it just re-seeds itself. I have really enjoyed mine! busybee Kentwood, LA (Zone 8b) October 29, 2002 09:10 AM Post #396417 I would like to vave this one and the bright yellow one. I have traded for seed but they are not the vine type as stated but the bush. Alyssum Cortlandt Manor, NY (Zone 6a) October 29, 2002 12:28 PM Post #396574 I saw this flower in a magazine and have been asking everyone what it is - - and now I know. I just love the shape of that flower, those 5 perfect petals and that little brown eye. I would be so grateful for a few seeds or cuttings - willing to trade or SASE.

I will send more as it gets more. The vine is beautiful! Hope yours does well! busybee Kentwood, LA (Zone 8b) November 13, 2002 05:32 PM Post #408973 Yes, I sure did. I had posted on mail call in my haste to reply. Thanks for all of the trouble you went to to send them. I am sure they will be beautiful.
