I would not put your phone or email up on here, especially your phone number.

Use a fake email like dpelle1TD@gmail.com or something.

1) go to a farmers market and buy a mirliton
2) plant the mirliton
3) enjoy your mirliton vine

Mirlitons don’t grow from seeds, buy you some mirlitons, build a bed with a lot of compost and manure and plant them. Make sure to mulch good every fall to keep from freezing and they will last years.

Where you located?

There is a mirliton organization in Louisiana LINK, started by a professor at Tulane, you can can post on that site looking for a source of native, not imported, mirlitions.

Naylors Hardware in BR used to sell them but they lost their store in 2016 BR flood but now they are allied with Cleggs Nursery in BR, if you are in BR area you could contact Cleggs to see if they might or anticipate having them.

You might also contact your LSU AgCenter parish extension agent to see if they might know of someone growing them who be willing to sell or give you some. LINK
