ISO: Soapwort (saponaria, bouncing bet)
I'm looking for someone who'd be kind enough to mail me some seeds or a couple starts of this plant. I'd pay shipping, of course.......I'm having trouble locating them anywhere!
This plant has the neat ability to produce lather when all parts of it are soaked in water and the water agitated. The infusion is then used for washing skin, hair, and cloth. In fact, it was often planted by wool mills as it was used to clean the finished cloth.
Its also known by it's other name of "bouncing bet."
Does anyone have this in their garden or seed pile?
