    Jeff seeds are rounded and smooth, mine are ridgey and flatter.

    I might have sent you some.

    would you have sent just six though GM? They were in a used envelope which makes me feel they must be mine, what a surprise I will get, can't wait to sow them.

    I would have sent you them in a small plastic resealable bag, so maybe not me after all.

    Just had a thought, could they be Canna or  Ricinus, I'll have a Google.

    edited to add.....neither of those. Will sow and see, I will let you know.
