Here I am possibly offering Seeds from Manihot esculenta, also known as Tapioca Plant, Cassava, Yuca, Manioc, macaxeira, mandioca, kappa kizhangu, aipimand, and Mandioca. This plant likes to live in full sun where it grows up to 6 feet tall. The yellow, cream, and tan blossoms are on display from late spring until early summer where they attract a wide variety of birds, bees, and butterflies. The young leaves can be boiled for 15 minutes and eaten as a vegetable, and the roots can be boiled, fried, or made into flour. It is a very good source of vitamin C. USDA Hardiness Zones 9 to 11.
