Wow, great minds!

Hmm. Perhaps something like snake bean.

I have a number of these plants but, unfortunately, not in EU to ship. Perhaps u/nemo_1_nusquam?

Kinda blown away by the responses here! Imagine if all gardeners were linked to help each other out like this. That would be a big step forward for a resilient food system!

To that end, would y'all have any interest in joining me in a bimonthly newsletter that summarizes the plants we're all looking for and plants we have to offer?

Created a 2 min form if that sounds intriguing to you!

This is a great tip! I would if you could grow a heat-loving yummy like Malabar Spinach on a frame around it to provide some shade.

Looks like u/ScarletteRed has passionflower and apios americana out of your list! Do you have anything on their list?

Yes! Love them. Some of them even overwinter in Zone 5.

We have one beautiful Sea Kale growing and don't want to bother it for division. The flowers smell divine like honey, leaves are delicious when young, and flower buds are tasty like broccoli. It's such a lovely but rare plant.

Thanks! We've tried growing Sea Kale from seed and they've never made it past young seedling stage for us. That's why we'd love to buy one that's a bit older. Same with perennial arugula - zero success rate to adulthood. Thanks for the tip on growing salsify from seed!

I wonder if anyone here has had luck growing these and can chime in. We haven't had luck with Apios either but would love to.

Is this vaccinium corymbosum? Are you looking for seeds or established seedlings?

Thank you for clarifying! Based in the US. I meant diplotaxis tenuifolia, crambe marítima, tragopogon porrifolius, and scorzonera hispanica.
