it has been done

i know this as FACT

It just won't work...
You could find a big tree..build a treehouse type platform..and grow up in the canopy...

Nope, no new news since Dec 2005. (this is a really old thread)

Celtis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
would probally be the best choice.
It is from the family Cannabaceae.

If you're still alive, I would try sweetgum. I'm not sure of its chromosome number, but if you did succeed, it would be a fragrant ornamental.
What i would reallly like to try is explained here: SpringerLink - Journal Article
a short summary as i understand it is perform open seed surgery, and swap out embryos, so that the transplanted embryo feeds on the other seeds food. I recall reading something about a russian experiment like this in 2005, with wheat and maize, and the outcome was something like three plants in one. there were maize(corn) parts and wheat parts, but also plant growth with a different chromosome count than either maize or wheat. If someone really wants to make some wacky new plant, i believe this is the way to go, especially if you're wanting to cross hops and the good herb with the similar seeds. also, check out humulus scandens, AKA humulus japonicus. that's japanese hops, great candidate for a seed embryo transplant, IMO
