I'm looking for them too,,  I used to have that plant and had to move, and left mine at the other house. It was well established and huge, so I couldn't dig it up.

Jimmy I can't even find one online. I can't find where to get seeds either. I've only read that they grow wild in LA and that one would have to get it from a growing ditch, but I think that might be illegal? I've never seen one just what your sister said Jimmy they are a pale yellow, almost greenish in color.
