I managed to obtain chocolate [cacao] seeds.

Cacao isn’t supposed to grow in the far northern extremes of Silicon Valley, indeed, it isn’t supposed to grow north of the 20th parallel.

OTOH, I’ve seen it, well, OK, one tree, growing as far north as Fullerton, CA (34th parallel). Sadly the idjit cut it down.

Anyhoo, I want some cacao growing outside the normal range just in case a plague takes out the world’s existing plantations...
