I mean true oddball. Nothing you can often find in peoples homes and nothing illegal please.

Personally I have a ton of plants, very few are oddballs though. I do have atm a dwarf banana tree and a pitcher plant. I also just ordered a set of Elan F1, Purple Wonder, and Pineberry strawberrys which are oddball sp. I think this year is the first one the last two of that list are available to purchase. I also have grown purple potatoes, pastel and other varietys of indian corn(i have won awards for). I also have seeds for a red colored sweet corn.

So, what does everyone grow?
 
I have a bonsai thread around here somewhere....lol. Nothing too spectacular though....

I must ask...Purple potatoes? Dwarf bananas? Skeptical...Photos please....

Just normal plants lol bonsai, bamboo & a golden barrell cactus. Have a few plants I'm cultivating outside (catnip, loran strawberries, wandering jew plant I thought had died) though.

I love venus fly traps & pitcher plants. I had a venus for a while until my cat decided to play with it & she succeeded in knocking the pot over a few times eventually killing it.

I got a few carnivorous plants like flytrap, pitcher and butterwart. Also got something called a "sensitive plant" which is a fern that reacts to stimuli. There is this other fern called resurrection plant or Rose of Jericho that will revive up to 50 years of being dry. I grow something called cape goosebery which is related to tomatoes, tomatillos and a wild edible weed which is a succulent called purslane. Not really oddball though.
