If anyone has any extra seeds they could spare I would appreciate them. Prefer the following along with any starting/planting/growing/harvesting advice. I am in 7b in the North Carolina Piedmont.

Lavender Touch
Peng Tung
Rosa Bianca
Florida Market*
Listada de Gandia
Kamo
Italian White
Round Mauve
Japanese Millionaire

Successfully grew clemson spineless okra last season (4 plants/5 gallon bucket, top watering).

Thanks in advance, just PM me for an address. Have rooster spur, yellow ghost, mexibell, serrano pepper seeds and marmande tomato seeds to trade.
I'll check my seeds,I may have a few of these.
I'm wanting to try Rosa Bianca and a small,round Thai version. The round Thai eggplants are delicious in green curry but I've never grown them.
