I hesitate to buy seeds from other areas (like the north) because our area is so unique. Many will grow here but differently. I wish online seed companies would post their address or the area the seeds were produced in. There are also very few southern heirloom seed companies which is unusual.

Tir_Na_Nog Is this photo the wild spinach you're thinking of? If so, it is the Malabar that Yuska mentioned. Not invasive if not allowed to reseed. I like the leaves raw in salads, etc and know folks that cook it like spinach.
