Would like to trade for your iris and would offer 2 seed trades for one tuber to offset your postage; could I send you my list? Doreen.

"every single one will sprout ... so i would hesitate to keep it in a maintained garden .... " Thank you Ken, that's good to know. Our yard is not the average yard with a lawn. It is only for wildlife, not looks. Clover instead of grass, beneficial flowers, herbs, gardens, Sunflowers and trees everywhere. Our yard blooms! I love it:) I collected some berries today. I probably will not make jam, but will plant more trees for the birds. Sometimes the county and power company come along and cut the trees down on that side. On Earth day last year they came and butchered all the trees on one side of our yard. I was very upset! esh_ga, yes it is Nebraska. These trees are staying if I can help it. In fact I am going to plant lots more. We also have tons of Mulberry trees for the birds. They share a few berries with me when I am out in the gardens, lol. abgardeneer, our small acrage is not semi-wild, its Wild! Love it! I even saw some Milkweed pods today. Thank you everyone, I appreciate all the great information. Dianne

Passiflora incarnata, aka maypop or passion flower, they are edible but are only good when they turn yellowish and become soft and wrinkly on the outside.

I have a book on edible garden weeds in Ontario. The book has recipes and the aim is to try them all this summer. So far I have eaten sow thistles(they are much like spinach (cooked) but a little bitter)and Comfrey leaves and stems (fairly bland but ok). Burdock roots (Gobo)and cattail /bulrushes are next. Josie23 - The half grown milk weed pods are edible according to my book. They're on for later this summer.
