Thanks...SEEDMONEY!!! Still waiting to get an ID on #2...someone thought it was alfalfa but it doesn't look anything like the alfalfa I've got growing for my BFs! It is more shrubby than the alfalfa. I am planning to grow some next season to see if I get BFs on it. It was growing on the side of the road here west of DFW. It could be a cover crop that has escaped in our rural area...but it's really a pretty blusih/purple blooming summer plant.

I don't know the answer, but you might want to post the question on the Meadows & Prairies forum too. - wd

Last year I got several yellow squash off of a volunteer. They didn't taste as good as cultivated squash, though. I think they were cross pollinated with something wild, so the flavor wasn't the same. But I've been perfectly happy with non-edible pumpkins and gourds from volunteers. This year I had a volunteer pumpkin vine grow straight up the cup plants. It grew to the top of those 10' tall plants. It was amusing to see. I ended up cutting it back because it started to pull the plants down.

Are you sure about that name? A google search results in zero finds, which is pretty unlikely for a company unless it's brand new and very small. Do you have a website or anything?
