moretz, I just bought a yellow shrimp from Lowe's on clearance for $4. They had 2 large containers. I'd wished I'd bought the other one. I gave my neighbor a division of mine already. If you can tell me how to collect seeds on it, I can try to give you some seeds. Deer ate some of mine off already. Lets hope there are still some left tomorrow.

May be I need to hand pollinate them first. I had some blue shrimp seeds that germinated but they died after I transplanted them or may be something ate them. I put the last of my seeds in a container. I will have to wait and see if anything comes up.

I've seen a coral one before, but can't remember who has it.

hickory, NC(Zone 7a)

im not sure on how to collect the seeds but it should be where theblooms was,i know they dont like to be transplanted so i would recommend putting the seeds in peat pots and then plant the whole thing out when they got big enough thxs so much for your offer i hope you can get some seeds

Bluffton, SC(Zone 9a)

That fiber optic grass looks like it could out of control. I like the look of that but would be afraid to unleash it in the low country.

Just a thought.

hickory, NC(Zone 7a)

i have alot of things that can get out of hand but i make sure they dont cause i pull up what i dont want and compost it lol but still like to grow things that can get out of hand and if i dont like it then i get rid of it thxs

North of Atlanta, GA(Zone 8a)

hickory, NC(Zone 7a)

North of Atlanta, GA(Zone 8a)
