i have gynura.
there are 2 types
i have several of both already rooted.
very healthy
i really only trade and dont sell plants.

i have Katuk, but my plants are still rather small
it would be a month or 2 before i would want to take any cuttings.

i also have Chaya... also known as "Tree Spinach", (large rooted)
Cnidoscolus aconitifolius

Moringa is a great green. (also have a small plant for trade)

and, my absolute favorite green is... BAOBOB leaves
excellent taste raw. also, very very healthy...
seeds germinate easy when fresh.

anything to trade ?

I grow katuk, moringa, cranberry hibiscus, hibiscus sorrel, ashitaba, gynura procumbens, okinawa spinach, and a few other edible shrub/trees. It is really cool to get fresh greens off a nice sized plant that grows faster than you can eat it. Katuk, moringa, and mulberries are my morning snack everyday for a while now. Most of this stuff is easy to grow from cuttings, and does well here.

Excited to hear about other plants people are growing and eating.
