  1. Xcellent word choice. Grew them (bought at a nursery local to me) once years ago. I've been to several nurseries this spring and don't remember even seeing any starts. Have they gone out of fashion, I wonder. I may have to start these from seed if I ever want them again.

    1. I got some of the seeds from Baker Creek, and others from the Dollar Tree. I've never seen the plants available. Maybe they are out of fashion!

  2. Plants are probably easier to find an X word for. That's a good thing about scientific names.

    1. Either scientific names or Chinese herbs, and I don't grow any of those! There are many starting with X.

  3. I don’t know this plant. I’ll show it to Mummy.

    1. They aren't toxic to you, however, they are sort of dry and prickly.
