good, well-drained soil and a sunny location. Plant 2 ft. apart, setting tuber 6 inches deep, on 
its side with eye up, covering with 3 inches of earth pressed firmly. Fill hole gradually as 
pics grows. Nip the ends of the main shoots when about 12 inches tall to encourage more 
oom. 
Dig after first frost in fall. Cut tops to roots and store upside down in cool, ‘dry cellar or 
cave, or place in box and cover with a mixture of Peat Moss and dry sand.
