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!
