Description

The listing, Toothache plant✿Peek-a-Boo✿Szechuan buttons✿Acmella oleracea✿20 seeds has ended.

Be aware, there will also be chaff. Very small seeds ~hard to separate.

AKA toothache plant, this herb is great to have in the garden if you wear braces. Flowers are interesting & probably why it's also called eyeball plant!

Wiki states -- "..small amounts of shredded fresh leaves are said to add a unique flavour to salads. Cooked leaves lose their strong flavour & may be used as leafy greens. Both fresh & cooked leaves are used in dishes such as stews in northern Brazil... Combined w/ chilis & garlic to add flavor & vitamins to other foods.

Flower bud has a grassy taste followed by a strong tingling or numbing sensation &often excessive salivation, w/ a cooling sensation in the throat. The buds are known as "buzz buttons", "Szechuan buttons", "sansho buttons", & "electric buttons". In India, they are used as flavoring in chewing tobacco.

Here are some links to more information -- things I just discovered & too many to list! It's practically a pharmacy!

BEWARE ROSE SEEDS! There are GOOD AND VALID reasons why we don't see rose seeds sold in big garden centers. More info here; http://goo.gl/0UJZry

BEWARE of home collected seeds from hybrid plants. They're no longer the same variety. Ask questions. Research >reliable< sources. Learn to succeed in your gardening efforts!

BEWARE -- GREEN bell peppers are UNRIPE bell peppers & aren't likely to provide VIABLE seeds. There are very few varieties that produce bell peppers that ripen to green. Same for GREEN Jalapeno & most other pepper varieties. It only take minutes to check the variety & discover the color of the RIPE pepper.

Apple seeds? Mercy! Don't get me started!

Thank you for that useful information, about selling rose seeds, and certain colors and rainbow colored roses. I've seen them on here, too. I guess, some folks would outright steal your credits, to give you something that you can't use because of the difficulty and other problems trying to grow them. You just kept me from getting 'sucked' in. Thank you for preventing me from being taken for a ride. I will beware of these from now-on. I truly appreciate it. Take care, and have a good day. -EJ =)
