I'm looking for seeds from this vine, ipomoea pandurata or wild sweet
potato. We had one that grew for years at our old house in Birmingham,
AL. Now I have a house of my own south of town and would like to have
this plant again. I found some old posts from this group when I was
searching the internet for sources of this plant so I was hoping that
someone would be able to help me.

The past two summers I went back to our old house where the vine used
to grow. There is a vine there but the blooms are considerably smaller
now than they used to be and I wasn't able to obtain any viable seeds.
I don't know if it's a different vine than it used to be or if the
plant is stressed or something. Very strange.

I've seen seeds for it on ebay.

I checked ebay and found a completed auction and contacted the seller,
but haven't heard back yet.

I'm looking for rhizomes because the seeds we bought through ebay are useless.

If anyone has any ideas of where to find it I would appreciate it.

Thanks
