| Oh Thank you for that photo! Fantastic photo to see the seed pods!
I am growing the orange, pink and red and they are at the baby stage and was wondering what the pod would look like!
I grew them all by seed.. and I have so very many growing right now and can't wait to see flowers!
I esp. like the pink.
Thanks again! Tricia |

| YES.. it is my favorite I have a lot of pink ones, red, and orange all in small stage.
They are VERY easy to grow by seed. I have lots of them and think they will do VERY well!
Here is a photo of the pink... the most beautiful flower to me:)

| Oh my goodness, these are just stunning! I would love to try just a couple of seeds from both the pink and orange if anyone has any to spare. |

| I am all out of the pink POB seeds because I got carried away and planted them all...
I got babies... here is a photo I just took of some of them. I will have seeds shortly which are so easy to germ. I have a way to get almost 100 percent.
