I just listened to this Going To Seed podcast:


And so I naturally started looking for sources of Lathyrus tuberosus germplasm.

Over at Minnesota Wild Flowers, I found a sighting relatively near me, so this summer I can go dig some up if they're still there.

But I'm not seeing much in the way of places I can just buy either seeds or tubers.

So, do you know anywhere I can? (I probably need sources in the US, but feel free to list anything for other, future readers.) Do you grow this and have some seed or tuber to trade or sell? Or heck, do you know anything else interesting about it?

I see places that say they're hardy down to zone 6 and others that say zone 2-3. Seems like a weird discrepancy.

Here's a couple of other videos, just for extra info:
