Ipomoea Costata and Vigra Lanceolata

Recommended Posts

Guest jessie

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone out there can help me find either of these plants to buy or trade. Any ideas about where I might find them would also be appreciated.

Thanks, jessie

Should that be Vigna lancelata?

Ipomea costata is an interesting sounding yam, but is found in far north WA, and perhaps ajoining NT. Aside from contacting native plant nurseries in the Kimberly or something, which may also not have it, I don't know.

The Vigna lanceolata is from the tropical central regions of NT, Qld and more limited in WA. Againsounds interesting, but I wonder who might have them available. A specialist native nursery perhaps, it is from the pea family so seeds might be available sometimes.

Thanks for the reply cornucopia,

I think Vigna lanceolata is the correct spelling, as you pointed out. Sometimes I have trouble reading my own handwriting smile.gif I'll keep looking for them, and if I have any success I'll be sure to leave a happy post on this board.
