One of my alabamensis x self flowers has said it is done ripening, but I am dubious. The pod was split and showing seeds but, in my opinion, the seeds seem smaller than I would expect. For this reason, I don't want to donate them to the seed bank. I'd hate for someone to burn a monthly request only to find out the seeds are duds. Instead, I'm going to do a giveaway. I should get somewhere between 3 and 5 packs of seeds out of the pod just harvested. That means that there will be 3 to 5 winners. Standard giveaway format applies:
1. Your name
2. The other guy's name
3. Dean loves #3
4. Etc.

I will draw sometime around Saturday or Sunday. Basically whenever I remember.

PM me with your address and be sure to remind me that you won the alabamensis seeds.

Woo-hoo!!! Two in a row! If it's not to late, could you send it with the Sarr seedling?

Not too late. I haven't gotten around to getting that together yet.
