For warm climates (not mine!) -
I found a seed source for capers on a random search for another vegetable.

Lake Valley Seed, a USA company that sells to small independent nurseries, has a domestic sub-brand of Italian seeds called Pagano. I have seen Pagano seeds on a rounder in an Omaha Landscape store. I think they were selling for $3.99 packet.

Pagano carries Capers!
Their full catalog is available at the lakevalleyseed.com .
For anyone possibly moving forward on this, check the seed quantity. In the main LV line, they're pretty cheap on the quantity of seed. In addition, I read caper seed germination ranges 40 - 70%.

Sounds like a pretty flower too, if you are patient. Full production is 3 years.
