Description

The listing, Native American Ocoee Seed has ended.

Ocoee fruit was a prized delicacy of the Native Americans. The town of Ocoee in Tennessee was named after this fruit, as was the Ocoee River which the Olympics were held on a few years back. This fruit is different from it's western cousin. It grows on a vine, has green easter egg looking fruit that are green and turn yellow when ripe. The fruit is tart and delicious. I made jelly out of some this year and it was unreal. It is the Tennessee State wildflower.
My friend and I are wildcrafters and our seed are gathered in the remote Appalachians in East Tennessee. This seed came from vines planted by an old homestead as they were prized by the women of that time for their fruit and beautiful flowers. A taste that is unique and beautiful to boot.
These vines can be planted by shrubs and trees and they will climb making the tree look as if eggs are hanging from it.

This auction is for thirty (30) freshly collected organic ocoee seed.

Will this plant grow in Michigan? Again, I'm very interested in this plant as well as the jewelplant. Thanks for any info.

It survives our snows in Tennessee, not sure about up in Michigan, but I did read it will grow in most of the 48 lower states? If you have a greenhouse maybe you'd have no problem. Im not a gardener, just a wildcrafter, sorry. I have seen them grown in pots, so if nothing else, could be moved inside during the winter, but our colds dont bother them at all.
