{"product_id":"sunchoke-jerusalem-artichoke-ht0120","title":"Sunchoke SEEDS, Jerusalem Artichoke, Potato Substitute, Helianthus Tuberosus HT0120","description":"I had the pleasure of growing these in the intense heat of a Florida summer, although they will do well in temperatures anywhere from 65 to 90 degrees.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey get about 4-5 feet tall and produce beautiful, small yellow sunflowers, about 3-4 inches wide, on multiple stems. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are actually a member of the sunflower family and a beneficial US native \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the flowers fade, tubers can be harvested and prepared as you would potatoes, either by boiling and mashing or making into French fries by traditional frying or an air fryer. They taste like potatoes but have substantially less starch, making them a good choice for diabetics. They are also high in nutrients, including B vitamins, a great survival food too! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerennial zones 3-11. Tubers will actually over winter in the ground and can be left to multiply for a field of them! Each year, the tubers will grow larger and produce more tubers near the parent plants. You can harvest some and leave some for the following season as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePLEASE NOTE THAT THIS LISTING IS FOR SEEDS, NOT TUBERS. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is for 20 seeds","brand":"SeedCult","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53058304115051,"sku":"HT0120","price":3.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/5815\/2043\/files\/0_d116692a-f233-4804-a643-34024aae6bf6.jpg?v=1775072059","url":"https:\/\/seedcult.com\/products\/sunchoke-jerusalem-artichoke-ht0120","provider":"SeedCult","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
