Looking for hairy vetch seeds - have lots of seeds to trade

preferably local trades, but shipping is fine, too.
Vicia villosa, or hairy vetch.

It grows as a weed around here, I will try to find some seeds. I think it's a bit early for ripe pods. I have common vetch in my yard, only started flowering a couple weeks ago.

thanks so much! Not urgent, whenever you see seeds please let me know. I want to establish it as groundcover.

Hi Satya,

Mine are blooming now, I will save you seeds when they are ready.  I also have other seeds and cuttings to share with you.  Thank you so much for all the extras you sent with my order.

Best,
Janet

Hi Janet, that's great!!! Did the African potato mint bulbils sprout?

Potato mint hasn’t sprouted yet, but we’ve had a really cool spring/summer so far.  Highs have only been in the upper 60s, so I’m thinking they just need warmer weather.  All the other seeds you sent me have sprouted and I just potted them all up.  I’m excited to have them.  If you pm me your address, I can send you some seeds now if you want.
