Hi Vicki,
I checked, and I have 2 packets still in stock. I updated inventory so you can buy a packet. Don’t forget to scarify the seed on sandpaper before planting, the testa is water impermeable. Regarding good luck with seeds, it would be a great favor to me personally and to anyone else who wants to buy those species to leave a rating.
Best regards,
Richo
