Ipomoea aquatica (morning glory-swamp cabbage)
Whhhhat Breezy have you lost it......Morning Glory Swamp Cabbage????? and you can eat it to..... LOL .....I gotta have some.....
What kind of trade are you looking for.....I don't have any MG's to trade yet..........
Dee
yea what are you looking for? i am intersted in these too.
From our PDB:
(http://plantsdatabase.com/go/1263/)
"The USDA classifies this plant as a Federal Noxious Weed.
Importation into the US is prohibited without a permit. It is a prohibited aquatic plant in the state of Florida, and a prohibited noxious weed in the state of Arizona.
As a Plant Protection and Quarantine Officer with the USDA, I do not recommend the distribution, planting, buying nor growing of ipomoea aquatica."
OOps, ok, ok....never mine Breezy don't think I need any.....Sorry Darius, thanks for informing us about it. And I'm sure Breezy didn't know this.........

Actually yes I did know about it. BUT it is still a neat plant, persons using it like I aim to do would keep this in mind I am sure and not throw seeds to the wind. Also for those who do want to use as a stir fry, I don't think you need worry about it taking over LOL. Anyway, I am looking for interesting morning glories in trade if anyone has any. Thanks
Ohiobreezy, Are the flowers on this pink or white? I have a pond. I think it would do just fine in the pond. Also, since I live in PA, I doubt if it would take over. Our winters would kill it. Would be interested in a trade for some seeds of it, if you still have it.
Buttoneer, the flowers are white. I have some, email me and I can send for sase!
Thanks for asking
Laurrie
I would like to try these - please email me for my trade list. Thanks, Kay
Ohio I would like some to grow in my 16' long rock & reed septic bed. I have a few heavenly blue and Kinola's lack MG seed or some regular mixed ones
OH I love stirfry and it sound like it grows as fast as Jack in the beanstalk. That's even better, I can just climb up it, instead of going over to my friends house to see what they are doing I'll just dangle off one of it's leaves and glide on over to see her...... I'll make sure I have a back-up parachute. Okay, could I have some for SASE?
Or I can send my list, nothing special though and I don't have any extra morning glories now, although I just started some a couple days ago. If they turn out you may have one for sure.
Kay, Donna, and potofgold, yes I have some left, I will email you.
and Potofgold: ROTFL, your description and what you would do with it above alone warrants that you have got to have some, too funny!!

Ok just finished emailing you all. That is it for the seeds, these last few posts have cleaned me out!
Should have more this fall when I harvest if I don't keep eating the shoots LOL

Hi Laurrie,

Thanks!
