P
wanted:unusual veggies
If you have a list that just shows the veggies you have to trade and the ones you are looking for, I'd be happy to arrange a trade with you. (The Garden Web list is just too cumbersome for me to weed through, but at a glance, it looks like I have some things that you are looking for - and vice versa.)
PS - Here's my snail vine!

And here's a bud. If you are still looking for this, I could probably do cuttings for you, or maybe I can even try my hand at rooting some? I cut mine back and bring mine in every year and it goes crazy growing on everything, Then come Spring, I cut it back again and and out it goes for another season. This is year 3,
I think what he is looking for is vigna caracalla aka corkscrew vine .. not phaseolus aka snail vine.

I would have imagined he would ask for a corkscrew vine if that's what he wanted. His want list clearly states:
"THE REAL SNAIL VINE! I've traded 3 times for what I was told was snail vine only to go to the trouble of growing what turned out to be those D#!@*! invasive pink pea vines!!!"
OOPS! My bad! I do want the corkscrew vine.Need to change that on my wish list. But thanks Sequee for your most generous offer and that's a beautiful plant.

Peggy, don't feel bad .. lots of people get those mixed up, including nurseries. I went through the same thing as you, kept getting the phaseolus which is the snail vine until I posted a picture of what I wanted and was informed it is the corkscrew vine. So in the end, you were getting what you asked for.
