It does have attractive foliage and gourds HOWEVER, we started to be displeased when hoards of wasps and bees inhabited the area. We have a small child and normally I would love to feed the pollinators but there became too many and it became somewhat dangerous. There are almost impossible to get rid of and I probably won't be able to plant because the roots are so well established.

I really would like to try this fruit, and am in Florida right now, but can't even find it growing wild in a park.
DID find plenty of Dioscorea bulbifera, however. And kudzu.
I'm not willing to risk buying online to a store outside of the United States, lest US Customs confiscates my plant.
ANY help is appreciated!
NOTE: I found a large vine growing on a fence in Miami (Homestead, actually) Brought back over a dozen fruits. They are past being edible, but full of good seeds, and I brought back about a dozen cuttings. Hope they will root uip here- I know I'll have to keep them inside over the winter

The flowers are dioecious (individual flowers are either male or female, but only one sex is to be found on any one plant so both male and female plants must be grown if fruit is required). The plant is not self-fertile, so requires insects to be fertilized. The male flowers provide the pollen, but do NOT have parts to provide fruit. This requires the female flower.

There's some that grows behind my property and I have to remove it periodically from my fence to hinder its spread.
