I had some seeds that might have been from an apios, and planted them this spring. When dug the area up this fall, found two very tiny strings of tiny tubers about a quarter of an inch long. I wonder if those were apios. I didn't see any vines, they must have been very small plants. Maybe because the area dried out more than expected. Replanted them in another container with less drainage. Will see what happens next year.

I'd love to get a hold of some Apios americana seeds. I'd be glad to trade you two of my packs, for a pack of your Apios americana. Please check my trade list and let me know if we can work something out.

Sorry, I thought I posted a picture
