Magnolia seeds

[Valerie]

I have 2 big magnolias in my yard, the kind that get the lemony smelling flowers that are about as big as a salad plate. The seed pods are huge. Anyway, I have about half a dozen seed pods drying on my porch. I lost my list of who said they would like seeds from these, but if you want some, pm me your address (Gayle I have yours, so just tell me if you want some seeds) and I will send you some once they get good and dry.

I would love to have a couple of seeds! Thank you so much for offering! Magnolias and Mimosas remind me of spending summers at Grandma's house when I was little. I've spent many an hour cranking the ice cream maker under a Magnolia tree in my cousins' yard (my cousins lived next door to Grandma). The Magnolia was the only tree, and the only shade, in their yard, the Mimosa the only one in Grandma's.

My sister is saving Mimosa seeds for me.

Oh I love mimosa trees! I always wanted one and then when we moved here, guess what! Two of them right at the edge of the woods! They smell so good when they're blooming.

Oh yeah, I will also be able to collect some fuschia four-o-clock seeds soon if anyone would like some of them, too. They smell good too, and re-seed themselves every year.
