Thanks for your feedback Vanessa, it sounds like it could be Madagascar, although they said it was a white seed, I have had sujestions of Sword & PoorMans bean also. I may send him all the sujested seeds to grow out and see what happens!!!!

Thanks again
Annie

Hello Everyone,

I have had requests for these seeds, can anyone help?

The first is a vigorous climbing bean, name unknown, off white flower with yellow centre, white seed, bean is 5 inches long, flat, looks like snow pea.
Would grow for a few years in tropics, was grown in Atherton, very strong
root system.

The next request is as follows........

Hi I am from Gladstone and used to grow a pea called 'Lacy Lady Leafless
Pea'. Do you have this seed in your seed bank? All mine were lost to mice a
couple of years ago.



Yours faithfully

Michelle Alderson


If anyone is able to identify and/or supply me with these seeds, please

Many Thanks

Annie Jenkins
