Hi susyflores, I have Maypop you're welcome to SASBE for. Katie GW: katie88

I started 2 maypops from seed this year, so I'm excited to see if they will grow and make it through the winter. Beautiful vines. I have had insomnia problems since childhood and lately have been doing well getting back to sleep by breathing in to a count of say 12-20, fully expand lungs, and same exhale, for 4-5 repetitions. I read that there are sensors in the lower lungs that cause a relaxing effect when this is done, it seems to work most of the time! I have had IBS problems and eliminated the allergens and triggers to the point most of the time I have no symptoms, read about casein, gluten, soy, and corn by Dr. J. Also the last trigger was raw fruits and vegetables (can eat most cooked), plus all nuts and seeds, and oils from them. Hope this helps.

Please check my trade list. I have oodles of newly hatched pawpaws. I also have several others on your want list in small quantities: Allium tricoccum (we call them Ramps here) and Claytonia virginica which are now dormant as well as others which will be available when they go dormant in fall.

If you are going to bring them in for the winter you can grow almost anything. I have... Oh I don't know, (guessing) 50 some here in Oregon where as far as I've seen only caerulea will survive the winter unprotected. I doubt anything will survive those Mass. winters- roots left in the ground or not. The problem you will have is this: Inside under lights they will go crazy. Trust me. The bigger ones such as quadrangularis might take over your entire house. Medium ones like caerulea or vitifolia will give it a pretty good try.. Little ones like biflora & sanguinolenta are manageable if you cut them back. Here's my front window: I've cut them back.. 3 or 4 times & as you can see.. Almost time to do it again. In the 'plant room' I have the rest.. It's going to take me a few days to de-tangle everyone when it comes time to put them out. They've done pretty well under 2 400 watt lights- one halide & one sodium, both on timers so each shines 8 hours a day. I've seen them flower & even fruit in there. So. I'd grow the little ones unless you have a greenhouse or something for the winter. If you have any of the passiflora books look for the decaloba sub genus- They're the small ones. As for where to get them, I've a bunch of sites (not updated for a while unfortunately) at the bottom here. Hmmm... Grassy knoll exotic plants popps to mind as well- Really good place, many varieties, reasonable prices & decent sized plants.
