Yes, I love tulip trees! Babies or seeds? Do you have sweet bubby seedlings as well? I have several things that aren't on my list so if see something that you may want I may have it, so just ask. You can email me directly if you choose to. Thanks

I would love some of the Seminole pumpkins! I have Ipomoea aquatica water spinach & Canna edulis achira also known as Indian Shot. I also have Cosmos bipinnatus sensation in mixed colors. Drop me a line if you would like to trade.

Alright, the taste test is done! I began by peeling two and leaving the other two with skins on. The ends were barely cut off the ones with skin to remove the extra root. Of the peeled ones I cut one in half. I covered in olive oil and salt and baked. The ones with skin actually split open halfway through. It would seem that even having the ends off is not enough to keep them from splitting (split, not explode). These tended to be a bit drier due to the insides being exposed. The ones without skin formed a tough (but not tough in a bad way) seal around the inner flesh, keeping it more moist. The texture is not unlike a potato, only slightly more mealy, and it tends to crumble more easily where a potato would clump if you mashed it. I think that if dried, they would make a good flour (I believe I've read as much somewhere...) The flavor is almost entirely like a white potato, but nuttier. I actually prefer it. Due to the slightly mealy and drier condition of the inner flesh I would reccommend boiling rather than baking, unless perhaps it is being soaked with drippings from something else. Overall I really liked these, and they are as easy to prepare as a potato. I definately plan to add this to my venison stew next time I geta chance to make it.

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.
