I understand this is a famous, life saving, staple food but don't know much about it, in the southwest.

This is very interesting. I have seedlings from plants from northern Massachusetts, which were, at the time of collection, from the most northerly known diploid Apios americana population- maybe yours are further north?

I have a lots apios that grow wild on my land, here near Joliette in Quebec. in more then 20 years, I have never seen a single seeds pods, I would like to try growing some by seeds if you have some available.

IIRC, Woo got them from www.sandmountainherbs.com/ground_nut.html. Perhaps he can confirm that.

I am growing apios from 5 different place---Sand Mountain, Acorus(Ontario near Lake Erie), Germany,Korea,Lake Huron . The pods come from only Acorus Restoration(Lake Erie).
