I never got to try my oca. I started with the standard packet, sowed and harested them but the harvest wasn't great (was a very dry year). Saved them and sowed them the following year, and they grew really well ( and had a few volunteers I'd clearly missed!
), but then I didn't get chance to harvest them as I gave up my allotment...
But now I've moved house, and I have a garden, so I'll be buying more next month, looking forward to trying them.
On a side note, was looking at the Suttons site and they sell what they call 'New Zealand spuds' which look and sound like oca, where they say he foliage is also edible and tastes like apples - anyone know anything about this?
