I don't mind. I will also go along with Tahir for including Butterfly Weed, as cleared/supported by Khabbab.farhan137 wrote:@Munir Sb.....are you interested in heliotrope?
You may then delete Strawberry Spinach from the list.

Re: Seed Group purchases
I also have a dwarf buddleja having buds in this heat of May. It is a heat tolerant variety. So buddleja can be grown in hot climate provided:hakraza wrote:no objection at all sir we cannot deny sir khabab's expeience.infact i choose it due to khabab bhai's this post.so if it is difficult to grow then we can left it no problem at all.khabbab wrote:I have seen blue buddleja davidii flowering in Summer heat of June at a nursery in Patokki though the plant was in shade.

1- It is not grown from seed (i got as a small plant as gift). You may grow it from seed in murree and when plant is established then bring it to lahore then it has a chance.
2- It is not common buddleja davidii but a heat tolerant variety of buddleja

UK seeds purchase update from Sutton seeds

luckily I received the seeds today from Sutton Seeds and I handed over both seeds and bulbs to my friend today, he is leaving on Sunday and will stay in Dubai for a while and finally reach Pakistan on 9th of June, now my only worry is the transit in Dubai because they are the most fussy people but just for being on the safe side I gave him the invoices of the purchase, just in case if they will ask him he can show the invoices that its a proper purchase from UK not a home grown or home developed seeds and bulbs now this week is crucial for me I will anxiously wait for the seeds/bulbs to reach the buyers fingers crossed
