I am currently working on edible cana lillies.

I would like to work on edible dahlias if I could find varieties with simple flowers (like a sunflower).
Hi Joseph,

Dealing with "invasive" means not planting them in the ground. I already have issues with Virginia Creeper and truly know what invasive means. I plan to use large containers filled with compost that I've been making since 2004. It ought to be done by now.
