Rob, I've got one complex hybrid that appears to have American in it but no pure American. You shouldn't really bother with those anyways since they wouldn't survive. Hill might be able to set you up with something. I know he help Dolly Parton plant a blight-resistant (hopefully) hybrid. Both Hill and the ACF are on Facebook.

There are quite a few poor quality varieties so if you have a good one you might actually like it. The American are pretty small for consuming, though. For eating purposes, Chinese are probably your best option.
