Darura seed for SASE

I have lots of seed from a lovely white Datura. It came up this year as a volunteer and had close to 50 blossoms! I collected almost 30 seed pods (spiny mean things) I had planned to plant the seed around the property, but i have a two year old and and lots of small kids around, so i thought i'd give the seed away. The mother plant died down but over wintered fine here (zone 5) she is a already pretty big.

Anyone?

I've been trying to find some Datura seeds here locally, but haven't been able to find any. The only ones I've ever seen are the Sacred Datura that grow on the way up the mountain, and I fell in love with them. Such a sweet smell. :)

I think these are possibly the datura inoxia. If so, please be careful around those little ones. Thanks, Suzi :)

Datura Inoxia is poisonous according to:

http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/355/
http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/thorn_apple.htm "all parts of this plant are highly poisonous (it is sometimes labeled as the most poisonous plant on Earth, although this is subjective). No part of this plant should ever be injested."

I believe that this is the Datura sometimes called Jimsonweed and yes, i believe it is quite toxic. The reason i didn't plant more. the mother plant has returned and i am leaving her. She is just so pretty, and in a far corner of the yard. If my daughter shows too much interest in the flowers she'll have to go.

Tombaak, you'd mentioned that you had some seeds? Do you still have them, and are you still giving them away?

Judy,
Yes, thanks for the add'l info. Will make sure I pass that on about tomato leaves and cherry pits/seeds to DSD, since she has my 4 y/o DGD to protect; grows tomatoes and I gave her money to get the cherry tree. ~ Suzi :)

I still have lots of seed. I mailed you my address, just send a SASE.

tombaak,

I'd love to have some seed, if you still have any.

Regarding poisonous plants...I think it's a good idea to treat all plants as poisonous unless you know for sure they aren't.

jasmerr,

Ahem to your advice.
