Plucky Purple Sweet Potatoes
It's been 8 years since we started planting purple sweet potatoes, and for the past two years I've been able to keep them in the basement until spring and have enough to replant so I can't remember where I last bought slips. I even gave away slips in the spring so hopefully others have had success. Here are photos of our slips in the spring, and fall photos of our crop as we dig them up.
As you can see, the tops of the plants got a bit frost bitten, but the purple sweet potatoes were fine. Now to let them cure up for two weeks and then it's onto to making scones and tempera!
