Sure, you can grow it in Minneapolis, recruiterg. I've grown White Velvet and Aunt Hettie's Red (Victory Seeds) and a couple of shorter types, both by direct seeding and from transplants (carefully, they supposedly don't like their roots disturbed). Aunt Hettie was about 7' by the end of the season, at least in a warm summer. There are always a couple of growers at the Minneapolis Farmers' Market offering it as well. Give it a shot!
