I have fresh mini-tubers (these are small tubers produced on the vine out of the ground) from my vines today. I'll ship 6-12 or more (depending on size and number of requests) to you if you SASBE me (smallest size envelope is OK) which should be plenty to get you started. As these are mini tubers, the cushioning is necessary and I cannot guarantee what the PO will do with them.
Cinnamon vine is hardy to at least zone 5 and is a sweet potato vine-like with heart shaped leaves and red/fushia stems. It has a reputation for being invasive in warm climates, but mine is very well behaved here. It produces an edible tuber that can be located 2-3' deep, which increases in size each year. My experience is that it spreads very slowly if at all here, but reliably comes back looking better each year.
You can have the mini-tubers for the sasbe, but I am urgently seeking A. kolomika cuttings, plants, seedlings, seed or fruit (small plants preferred, gender not important), so if you can help with that, please let me know.
Please "take a number" by posting a reply here. I'll fill as many requests as I can, in order of response, but everybody please understand a trade for the kolomikta (apparently not too likely here but...) will bump you to the top of the list! I have enough mini-tubers for about 10.
Thanks
Have: Cinnamon Vine/Chinese Yam SASBE
I would love anything that you can spare. Dmail me and I will look around in the garden to see what I can send you. With the weather being so hot hear lately I have not really kept up with with like I should. I am sure I can find something you will enjoy though!
John , I just received your lingonberries this week and feel kind of selfish wanting some of your yam , but you have the coolest stuff. I will continue to try to find something to repay you for sharing.You need a bigger want list. Will send an envelope if it is ok?
I would love to trade with you. I have banana seed, double yellow datura seed, hibiscus seed if you have an interest in any of these. Thanks!
I'd love to try some cinnamon vine. Please let me know if there is any left. Thanks too for offering these.
tetley, I'll be in touch.
Gus, I've had a serious case of "unusuals" for some time. SASBE me for the tubers.
Canna, the double yellow dat would work, but you can just sasbe me if you want. I had a yellow brug about 10 years back that was beutiful, but didn't make it through winter 1 year.
Theresa, yes I have enough, SASBE me.
Thanks for the nice comments.
I dont see your address in the DG address exchange. Can I have your address please?
Could you email me your address and I'll get the Double Yellow Datura shipped out this week? Thank you for sharing your Cinnamon Vine with me.
My tubers arrived ,can't wait to see them grow.
Thank you very much.

Care of tubers/ Starting them: If you are in a warm climate, you might be able to start them right away. If you are in a zone that has cool/cold winters, put the tubers (dry) in a zip lock bag and let rest for a while. Only plant when the weather starts to warm up, or if you can provide a warm germination/warm internal environment. This one likes heat to start and sends roots deep, so time things so that you can plant outside when the plant needs more room. They are easy to grow but the tubers take a while to start growing and can be erratic. Sometimes it takes me a month or more to see them grow.
If you still have some...I would like to try them.
melvatoo, yes still have some - check your d-mail
