One Mud Monkey's Adventure in Organic Gardening “Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint, and the soil and sky as canvas.” -Elizabeth Murray
Okay, obviously I've never grown potatoes before... these came after the flowers. I didn't realize that potatoes made... fruit? Can anyone point me to more information about these.
I know potatoes and tomatoes are from the same family, and potatoes sometimes bear fruit...but I've read they are poisonous! I've never seen them, myself.
No, I wish I could help you. The people of the Andes save seeds from potatoes, maybe this is how. I have never seen the potato put out fruit. Entirely ignorant about these things, I am. Rosey
