#casteroilplant #casterbean #pricklyballs #red I just love the red prickly balls!🤦♀️🤷♀️

@hayleyaj 💘😍

@gjones 🤪😉🤣💘😍

Wow 😍❤️

@sabbanrula thank you!💘😍

I like the balls too - just not too close 🤫🤩

@sharonhayden 😉🤣💘😍

Shelley I didn’t know they had balls at all. Their a great plant. Here they get more like a tree. Those are prettier than the green ones I’ve seen. You’ll never live down the prickly balls 😆😁😂🤣😊💕

@terrimclaughlin yep! The balls are seeds! I like them better than the flowers!💘😍

#castorbean #red look at the color of those leaves! Are those the reddest prickly balls you've ever seen or what!

@hayleyaj 💘😍

😅😂🤣

I think they might be! 😲😉

Lol 😂 I couldn’t possibly comment on prickly balls so early in the morning lol 🤪

Morning Shelley @ShelleySnyder I’m not looking at your red prickly balls 🙈 it’s far to early 😂 the leaves though are Fabulous 😘

@rachelbrooks how strange peach you were the only one who didn't say it was to early to comment on my prickly balls 🤔 me thinks you like them!😂😂 I know it's cuz they are so very red!😂😂💘😍

@suerichards 😂😂😂💘😍

@jadojado29 it's Afternoon Suzie now you can look!😂😂 I agree about the leaves!😉💘😍

@gjones actually those are pretty good sized balls, no little balls around here!😂 I did start these from seed, which I have to do now because my live plant source is gone so I have no choice!😉💘😍

You can do either way Katy, they grow really fast, I soak the beans until they burst and then plant them 😁 this year I soaked 6 beans, 5 burst and were planted and 4 actually came up!🤔 Mine were the dark red ones but one came up green!😠 Good luck, so easy!💘😍

Is it ever too early for prickly balls? 🤔🤷🏻♀️🤣

#castorbeanflower @KariSamuel here's mine! I seem to have two kinds of flowers, the prickly balls I like and a small whitish flower 🤔 guess I got best of both worlds!😂

@hayleyaj 💘😍

Most unusual!

Those little white flowers are so insignificant in comparison to the prickly balls! 😂😚

@hayleyaj isn't it tho! I've never had one do this!🤔💘😍

@KariSamuel you're right!! The balls are better!!😂💘😍

@gjones 😂😂 let me know if it works!💘😍

What is the gum supposed to do Katy? @gjones

@lesliecole49 the gum is supposed to run them off!😂 We'll see! I've got a feeling they are going to eat it and stick around for more!😂😂💘😍

@cyndi I like spicky balls!😂😂😂 💘😍

@columbiariver it isn't this plant that does it's juicy fruit gum supposedly!😂💘😍

I love the spiky balls too Shelley 😂😂 how fabulous! 😍💚❤️
#casteroilplant #casterbean #hugeleaves #redpricklyballs #pricklyballs that leaf is really huge!!
@hayleyaj 💘😍
@gjones they really do have a very cool leaf!💘😍
My neighbour has one and she’s going to give me some seeds 🤞🏻- hope it gets as big as yours
@sharonhayden 🤞 it should get the size hers is at least!💘😍
