They remind me a little of the Indian Blanket flowers.

You are so right! But I know for sure that these are wild flower seeds and not weeds. I have pictures if you are interested in seeing them. Thank you, Pam

I don't like to be a wet blanket, but a lot of knoxious weeds and undesirable plants that have inundated wetlands and other areas of our country have been introduced in just this way. Before someone plants something from a foreign country they should know what they are doing. Has anyone ever heard of Knapweed? It is a knoxious weed that was introduced from Europe and has inundated the Western states. It is very hard to get rid of, kills grass and anything else near it,

I would be very careful about introducing something from another country!!!

I responded to your email but I don't know if you were able to get it.

oh I forgot, the seeds are from Bagdad, Iraq.
pamelasue Posted - Apr 11 2006 : 6:31:41 PM
I'm not really sure what they are called, I have a few pictures from over there that show they are in sand and rocks. My friend sowed some seeds about 2 weeks ago and they are now sprouting, and the weather there is the same as it is here, Houston area.
Send me an email address and I will send pictures.
Thanks,
Pam

Pam, do you know what the name of the plants are or what region they're from. I ask because I live in the desert and it's hard to find plants that will do well here due to the heat and lack of moisture. But some areas of the Middle East have the same conditions so they would be ideal for my area.
I have butterflies in my stomach just thinking about how good this could be. Please don't think I'm weird it's just been a long struggle to find things to grow here and I'm excited to think this might be what I'm looking for.
