Cole,
Do you have any interest in working with some that look to me like they may have the 'tumbling' characteristics you mentioned? I've got two lines of carroty-leaf micros that look to me like they would do well as tumbling plants. These don't really have much of a 'main' stem. instead, then send out several relatively slender stems closely grouped from very small area. None of them are thick enough to stand upright without support. I was about to get rid of them when I realized them might 'tumble' nicely from a hanging plant.
I'm not set up to grow them out and already have too many others to work with. I'm going to save seed from these two when they ripen in a few weeks.
Any interest in playing with them - you or anyone else?
