yacon

two of the three yacon rhizomes i planted forty-six days ago downstairs are greening up nicely and will leaf soon enough...which is good news for my yacon population later this coming spring...i have pieces of tuber in the refrigerator and there are still tubers growing under the mature plants under the lights...and...as if that isn't good enough news the mature plants re working away at producing more rhizomes ( fourth and fifth photos )...i would ( and may yet ) hazard some in my bed at the community garden if it weren't for the incredibly long season evinced by these andean natives...still..there may be one plant there anyway.
