Non aroid search

From: Lester Kallus lkallus at earthlink.net> on 2000.12.24 at 21:34:20(5793) Once every few months I slip a non-aroid question into this group. It's time again. A surprise cold snap associated with a bigger surprising horrific work +More schedule caused me to just let a few plants die in my garden. The variegated tapioca - Manihot esculenta variegata - is one of my favorite non-aroids and it rolled over dead with the cold snap. I brought the tuber in but it will undoubtedly do nothing. (I've tried this one before but the tubers don't seem to send anything up regardless of how long I wait.) I'll be in the northeastern part of Miami visiting family in January. I may head down to Fairchild during that trip. Does anyone in this group know of a garden center or nursery near any of those parts of Miami that might carry Manihot? Ideally I'd like to find a small one that would easily fit into a carry-on bag. Even though this might be pushing my luck, how about small passion flowers aside from the easily available alato-caerulea? Thanks, Les
