Just wondering if anyone has received any of those mystery seeds from China and thereabout.
No, I haven't, and I hope I don't.

I hoping I get some. Remember Jack and the bean stalk.
Nope from Arizona. Maybe not desert seeds

Yep. But wasn't there a giant up there in the clouds that tried to kill Jack?

If they were, they would probably be some rabid, man eating cactus.

Mentioned on the BBC Radio 5 last night. The callers seeds came from Singapore and were marked Jewellery - Ear Studs and had passed through customs.
It seems it's a cheap way to add legitimate likes to an Amazon shop or similar. Joe Soap gets roped in by all the good reviews and buys some high value dross from them.

Or "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"? Don't fall a sleep next to any large gourds..

There is a bright red seed with a black spot.
They are used on Rosaries and jewelry.
Airbus precatorius, or Rosary pea.
I thought the seeds and plant pretty and ordered some.
ONE OF THE MOST DEADLY
POISONESS SEEDS THERE ARE.
More so than castor bean.
And NO WARNING.
The point?
Do not even open any seeds recieved this way.

They grow plants that spy on you.
No, I have not. I'm sending some quack grass, milkweed, foxtail,& bull nettle, & Canadian Thistle over to
them. Problem weeds on the Iowa farms.
If you get any? The best thing to do is send them back to china. If you plant them you don't what will emerge. If you throw them in the trash they will end up in a land fill and possibly grow or decompose and pollute the water table. If you throw then in your garbage disposer and grind them they end up in our rivers and streams. If you cook them and eat them. You are in need of help. You could let them lay on your coffee table for a conversation piece and sell them at a yard sale next year. If you turn them in to the Gov't they will end up sending them back as a stimulus or giving them out if you vote Democrat.If I get any I'm sending them back even if it cost me a few cents for postage. Let the Chinese and their post office deal with them.

If Amazon starts selling them, I'm dropping my Prime membership.
Maybe the idea was to plant them if you want to raise some ear studs.
