Yes I grew mine from seed, and they did really well until the puppy decided they were in the best place ever to dig!!!!
I tried to save some but I'm not sure it will sprout. I've still some seeds which I'll sow, hopefully they don't heed to be fresh to germinate. Taste, I must admit I grew a few new to me green type things last year and they seem to have blurred a bit so wouldn't like to comment. But I know I was looking forward to it this year.....
