bidens aristosa

Can anyone tell me where I can send for bidens aristosa or tickseed sunflower?



Would sure appreciate it.


Gosh, various Bidens species (pilosa, bipinnata, and laevis) are pesky weeds down here. They're all over my pasture -- tho I haven't bothered to ID them. One is white with yellow center. The others are yellow, and daisylike. You can come dig them up any time you want.

If you aren't kidding maybe I can stop on my way north about the end of March.

Can't find anywhere to buy the seed.

I thing aristosa is the tallest but pilosa will do.

No, but March is probably a bit early up here. Nothing even in bloom yet (in the weed department, at least).

Have you tried to google for wildflower or wildflower seed? There are several Texas wildflower farms (they sell to state road departments for highway beautification).
