Thanks, Margaret.  I'll try the seed.  Since Grandma's been in the nursing
home for
the past 3 years, I've looked in her garden for seedlings coming up, but
I've not
been able to find any.   I think I may give these others a try.

Bambi--who also loves lobster, but has developed an allergy to shellfish,
and can
no longer eat any shellfish!  What a horrible time it is when we have oyster
roasts!
