Im interested to learn more about the viability of growing Jatropha in the US. I understand it's not frost tolerant, but I have 40 AC in southern california which might be suitable. I have grown a few plants from seeds on eBay but would like to contact someone with direct experience in the US for advice and to get some ideas of what to expect on a in-ground larger scale experiment...

I created a group in yahoo groups called jatrophausa. I have saved a few docs in the files area with growing zone maps and some other stuff I have collected. As I get more info, I will be saving it in this groups folders.
