I have sweet potato slips (rooted starts - certified organic, field grown with potatoes starting) from a friend in Iowa. It is a challenge in CV to grow these and produce roots without protection from cold later. But they also produce great greens (stir fried with garlic yum!). They also are ornamental and grow quickly to cover weeds - they are a morning glory after all. I am only asking for a bit to cover the cost of them (what you think would be fair). Here are the varieties I have:
Sweet Red / Scarlet - typical orange moist flesh - early and very vigorous vines

Dingess Pink Tint - White-fleshed with pink flecks - productive. likely a drier flesh more like irish potatoes.

Morado de Yucatan - Purple skin, white flesh, dry texture

Oklahoma Purple - Purple skin and flesh, very vigorous vines, likely a drier fleshed variety too.

Post here, but PM is better or both!

COYOTES AND BADGERS GO ON LITTLE ADVENTURES TOGETHER SOMETIMES!!!

Coyotes and badgers will sometimes form a mutually beneficial relationship to get food. These unlikely besties are known to hunt together and can even be more successful hunting prairie dogs and ground squirrels when they work in tandem.

Check out the comments to learn a little more about the power couple everyone is talking about and their unique way of occasionally teaming up.
