I've grown maypop here in zone 4/5 for a number of years -- the roots survive well, especially if given a little mulch. I think I got my original stock from Tripple Brook Farm. I also devoted a chapter to maypop in my book Uncommon Fruits for Every Garden. Here are the sources I listed in the back of the book:

I know there was a discussion on maypop earlier this

summer or fall, but I can't seem to get to the archive

information anymore.  Is this a temporary problem, or

just my computer?  At any rate, perhaps someone can

help - I'm looking for some maypop seed or roots from

a Northern source that should survive and fruit in

zone 5b central Missouri.

Thanks!
