      Hi Justin,
      I did grow some of these this year. I’ll try to remember to e-mail you when they come online.

      At this point it is best to use the “wait list” button that is on every product. They you are automatically e-mailed when these come in stock, which will be very soon.

      How much would I need to water this plant everyday, and how would it do in california.

      This would be just like a california native ephedra–once established, requires little or no water. Like any perennial, requires occasional watering to get established.
