I don't have the heart to ask her for another. The problem is that I couldn't find a suitable place for it. I was told they need a shady spot and somewhere to run. I saw them planted at Disney in hanging baskets and running on a trellis in shade. Keep trying with a long thin paintbrush you may get a surprise.islandgal246https://www.blogger.com/profile/09139072456332225087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1213208274796269896.post-74934886249959996692009-10-29T18:22:30.142+05:302009-10-29T18:22:30.142+05:30Titania, yes, there is some work done in curing th...Titania, yes, there is some work done in curing the pods.If I get one pod at least...<br />Green Thumb, I hope this time I might be lucky.<br />Ian, I have tried the artist'd brush early in the morning without success.

I have found a place in Madagascar they send them in bundles. As thicker the pods as more expensive.
