Will trade commercial seed packets from 08 for these 3 red

northwest, IL(Zone 5a)

Perilla- a purple leaf kind ( no green) For color, I'm not eating them.

Celosia 'Flamingo Feather' - if yours has red leaves. I bought the commerical kind from TM but the leaves were not red like what I had received in trade. Sadly, I didn't know where the seeds were back then to save them. Now I know where they hide!

Amaranthus- I don't know the cultivar name but it grew slowly with light red leaves to about 3 ft. I guess a DWARF variety compared to the darker and taller A. 'intense purple'

I have over 100 packets of seed from Botanical interest. Including a lot of veggies. It would be easier ( for me!) if you tell me what you are looking for
I also have harvested seed of an unnamed Amaranthus darker than 'intense purple'.

This pic has nothing to so with a seed trade but it made me chuckle- something the boys took!

You know that looks like the one I have. The guy who gave me a start called it "purple shot" with an' i' for the 'o'!
Maybe it is really called cruentus!

I have this in seed for trade

Sorry this pic is so dark. I wonder why they would darken on the web??
