Greetings,
While maypops grow abundantly on my property, these are not so good compared
to some I have tried over the years. I would like to obtain seeds from
superior fruits to enrich the native population, so that I can hopefully
find selections that are much better flavored. I would be most interested,
although not limited to, seeds from the colder portion of the range, roughly
zones 7 and northward, and from fruits with particularly good flavor, larger
size, or any other interesting traits you may observe. Anyone willing to
help, please contact me off list.
