mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

Dandalf

Cassava? which unlike chives is a root vegetable ; -)

Phil

[Rosie] Chives? No
[Inkspot] Native to a particular country? (Sorry, didn't spot that earlier) No, as it does not grow in the wild, as far as I know.
[Dandalf] Cassava? No

CdM

Taro?

In order to get the last of the obvious ones out of the way.

Phil

[CdM] Taro? No - and if that's obvious, I'd hate to see obscure ;-)

flerdle

Arrowroot?

Dandalf

Jerusalem artichoke?

Don't all cultivated plants have a wild form? Unless only the cultivars have survived and the original wild form is now extinct.

Phil

[flerdle] Arrowroot? No
[Dandalf] Jerusalem Artichoke? No - Yes, I presume all cultivated plants do derive from a wild form, but not all specific plants can be found in the wild.

A spice?

[Inkspot] Spice? No

A tuber?

[Inkspot] A tuber? No

flerdle

A particular plant (rather than a vegetable/plant type)?

Phil

[flerdle] A particular plant? YES
