Have this plant through a friend.
It comes from an in vitro lab but the name is unknown to me.
It would be an edible.
Please some help

D'ont think so.
A ventricosum does not form shoots.

it seems a difficult task for the experts among us :ha:

I know enough to know that I don't know! :ha:

I can tell you what it is not: anything with any B (balbisiana) genome, i.e., not any of the AB, AAB, ABB, AABB, or AAAB edible hybrids.

Could be an AA genome edible hybrid or one of the seeded, inedible species.
