***** WARNING: Do not eat! *****

Native to Africa, this tall, strikingly beautiful plant is often grown for its dramatic visual effect in the garden. This variety is 10-12' tall, red-stemmed, with giant, veined red leaves, and red flowers. At Sankofa Community Farm, where this seed was grown for our catalog, it is part of their African Diaspora Garden, where they pay tribute to the important plants from the mother continent.

Ricin is the toxic chemical in the 'bean,' which is not a legume but a euphorbia. Eating 4-8 seeds could kill a human, but it would take 80 to kill a duck. However, these seeds can be made into castor oil, which has a variety of uses including as medicine (especially in the Southern US), packaging, coatings, and biodiesel. Seeds from 4000 BC were found in tombs in Egypt, where its oil was used for lighting lamps.

In our Seeds and Their People podcast, our friend Doña Iris Brown of Norris Square Neighborhood Project says: "my grandmother, she would take a leaf, she would cut it, and when you have pain (back pain, pain on your neck) she would put vicks or another ointment and then she'd warm up the leaf and put it on the ointment. She would take a piece of material and tie it there to hold the leaf against the ointment on your skin." Her grandmother would also cut the leaf stem into pieces and string them up to be worn like a necklace to relieve pain.

Note: Some gardeners may want to remove and dispose of any seeds that develop on the plant to keep them away from children or pets. Seeds are poisonous and should not be consumed.

Days to maturity: n/a

Seeds per pack: 10

Germination rate: Untested Botanical Sample

Planting / harvesting notes

Direct sow after the last frost or start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost. This species is perennial in Zones 8-10, and annual elsewhere.

Seed keeping notes

Collect seeds when fully mature and dried on the plant. You will see their dark brown and light brown patterns when mature, and the seed pod will be crispy dry. Allow to dry further in a well ventilated place. Again, keep seeds away from pets and children, as they are poisonous if consumed.

Nice shirts for the price! But do not recommend for thick body types.
I bought 3 different ones. 2 Mediums and 1 2XL. The mediums fit correct and really nice! Would definitely recommend for the price! More like a exercise material, and sticks to your body shape... Sooo the 2Xl did not fit the person correct. Was so tight... And the strech is to stick to your body... So would not recommend for anyone a bit hefty or fit tbh. But the shirts are good materials and feel nice for a fresh day out or to use as gym clothes!!

Great Value heat gear material with high neck collar and loose fitting
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
My husband has been looking for mock neck shirts that are comparable to UA heat gear material but that are short sleeve and fit loose to wear under his work uniform. These seemed to have been a good soft quality option and the price is is great.

Fit me even better than I was hoping.
Size: XX-Large, Color: Beau Blue
I was all but convinced upon receipt I would be sending these back but they fit beautifully. The trick is understanding what the directions are trying to tell you. I’m 6’4 with a 40 inch waist on traditional jeans (regular fit). I selected 2XL because my feeling was I would want and need a waist line that would fit me but not constrict me. Admittedly my regular fits were getting close to not fitting as good anymore so I felt 2XL would give me that “extra” my regular fits were no longer affording me. Comfortable at the waist(not too tight) and they fit me nicely all over. Perfect length. Colors look great too. The pictures shown are accurate. I’ll be ordering more. Give these a try! Definitely worth the money.

amazing pair of jeans!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Dirty Blue
im 6'2, 280 currently , bought a 38/32 pair of, these jeans and will instantly look forward to buying more, just for comparison , the same day i got these i tried on a pair of levis i had just bought as well, the Levi jeans i got were also 38/32, and they were the 501's which are stretchy, but maaaan, let me tell you, the difference between those and these are night and day, these feel like i can run a mile in them and do whatever activities i choose to, its stretchy in all the right places, the crotch area isnt tight at all, these are incredibly breathable and in comparison to the levi's price , these are cheaper by $15 and they weren't even on sale, unlike the levis which were on sale by 15% and STILL costed $50. Will buy more ASAP. 10/10
