Diana, Thanks, I learned a lot from your article and wish I could add this plant to my Want List, but it doesn't like my zone! I really love multi-purpose plants.

Hi Bev,

I'm sort of close to you, I'm in zone 6b. Job's Tears grew fine from seed during the warm summer months. I'm still snipping seeds off it :) However, it is pretty much brown and has just about had it now. I plan on starting it from seed again next year.

Happy Gardening!

Diana, You can put my name on your list of Job's Tears seed recipients, lol. I'll check your Want List to see if I have anything for a trade you might like/need.

hehehe...you mean you don't happen to have some Tacca nivea http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/59995/ seeds handy :))) I appreciate the offer, but not at all necessary. I still have so many seeds from last years Cottage Gardening seed swap and I'm currently in this years. I think there is still time if you want to join in.

I'll send out your Job's Tears seeds asap.

LOL, no I don't have any of those nice tender plants you're looking for. My Have List is full of herbs, or what some may call weeds. I'll check out the Cottage Gardening seed swap. I haven't made time to check out the forum like I wanted either.

I really appreciate the Job's Tears seeds!!! I look forward to growing and using it for beads and food.

Thanks so very much,
Bev
