Smaarty, I'm not going to count #7 because I may not have made my answer to #2 clear. It does not flower. It's sometimes hard to answer questions--I know what I mean because I know what the answer is, but that doesn't always come out clearly for those asking the questions!!! Sorry!!
-

7. Squash of some kind?

7. No, not any type of squash.

8. Fruit or veggie?

so we can eat it but it's not fruits, veggies, or herb/spices.
8. Do we eat it raw or has to be cooked?
-
8. You could eat it raw but much better cooked!

9. Is this found in the uS?

-
12. Is it green?
Good night
-
13. (depending on answer to #12) Is it a fungus? (mushroom)
-
HI everyone. A quick check in but I'll be back in a couple of hours.
12. The plant is partially green.13. No, it is not a fungus.
Just to clarify. Many of the questions have been about the edible portion of the plant, but originally I was really looking for the name of the plant. As the questions have come in, I think it will be easier if I accept either the edible portion or the plant name as the answer.
-
14. Primarily cultivated/domesticated? (bean sprouts, tomatoes, though it is not either of those)
-
Ceanna, sorry...I meant to ask if the edible portion green
-
14. It is not primarily cultivated.
LOfL, and all, the edible portion is not green at any point, as in it does not ripen as such.
