Tried this for the first time on holiday in Tanzania and really liked it. Does anyone know if you can buy some root cuttings in this country because Iove to have a go at growning this next year.
I CAME LATE TO THIS GAME, BUT IT'S IN THE BLOOD. I TRY TO BE ORGANIC BUT SORRY HAVE TO USE THE SLUG PELLETS.

Having never heard of this i had a quick google.and seems there is nothing to be had here or in the USA (but as I say it was a quick google)

Its a shame, because I find this an intriguing plant and would like to try it myself.  Possibly (as I read) its because it needs 8 months of strong sun, so isnt viable here.  It would be nice to hear if anyone has tried growing it..possibly in a polytunnel or GH?
