Description: Is also known as ‘yam bean’, this tuber has crisp, sweet white flesh, and light brown skin. With a long, hot season it can grow 4-6" diameter and 4-5 lbs in weight. More temperate climates will produce smaller roots. Tubers develop after flowering and store well. Ripe pods and leaves are poisonous. Cultivation: Start seeds inside 8-10 weeks before last frost date. Keep soil warm until emergence. Seeds will not germinate in cool soil. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil at least 20" deep. Plant in late spring/early summer in a warm, sunny location when soil temperatures are above 70°F. Remove flower buds to promote root production. Harvest tubers 5 to 9 months after sowing and store in a dry, dark, cool environment at 50-60°F. ❗️ Planting instructions included in the packet 📌Please NOTE: Maturity, adaptability and disease tolerance may differ under your specific climate and/or growing conditions. End users should educate themselves on how each vegetable variety will perform at their location and formulate a strategy on planting and harvesting times.
