Yes. I would love to have a rooted cutting or a couple of seeds. If you have one or some, please tell me what plant trades you are interested in.

Charlotte,
I don't have any extra, but was recently able to find seed at Seed Savers Exchange. Just wanted you to know, in case you can't find a trade with someone here on DG. Nat

I have some seedlings started. They just have two sets of regular leaves but I can tag a couple for you or you can buy tubers at Monticello.

Please keep me in mind Loretta. The ones at Monticello are a little too much for me with all my other "obsessions" :)
Charlotte, I tagged a couple for you. They should be ready to mail in about 2-3 weeks.
Here is the Mama plant. For your own FYI. The pods do not have to turn brown for the seeds to be viable. I left mine on the vine until the frost, then dried and stored. They were viable two years later. Full sun, keep it on the dry side, and when the plant gets a good height start pruning the growing tips to get blooms earlier.
That's beautiful Loretta!
Loretta, That is a beautiful spec. So many are selling them but shipping the snail vine instead.
Thank you Loretta. I will look for to it and put it in my book. I've never sent or received a live vine before. How do you send it ?
I am sending a private email to ya.
thanks
