I'm looking forward to growing and tasting it for the first time this year too.

Im very excited about them (sad I know). 

Not sad at all, a new crop is exciting.

[Trillium]

I bought 2 little tubers (all that my supplier sent  ), potted them up and they're now leafed out and chugging along. I'll be interested to try them when I figure them out.  :happy:

bought 7 myself from realseads. I remember reading a gardenig blog who said he got about 1kg per tuber. Just planted mine will growthem in the garden this year to keep a close eye.

Articokes semed expensive at 50p each 3 years ago but encreased 5 fold 10 to 50 to 250ish

Mine are in the ground, two inches deep. Shoots were growing, but as I had no space left in the greenhouse for more pots right now, I decided they would manage 

[New shoot]

Mine were a pressie from another forum member    They are potted up in the greenhouse and saw the first leaves today when I got home today

Mine a pressie too 

They started sprouting weeks ago so I put them into pots which I suspect will be too small but will have to do for now.

I saw how big they get in their last few weeks (foliage wise) on a website yesterday 

Am revising my plans of where I might put them ... !

Mine too. My, there are some generous and lovely people round here, aren't there?

[DD.]

Strange, mine were a pressie also!

[arugula]

Someone must have a huge garden or plot! 

[New shoot]

Or a lot of Oca    See you all in the recipe section this autumn for the 'What to do with all this oca' thread   I was chuffed to get some as had been dithering over the price, so as you say Argyllie - a very generous gift  

I'm looking forward to seeing the fill grown plants and flowers having looked them up - should get my fellow plot holders guessing

I wasn't even dithering, I seemed to completely miss the boat somehow!  Then I mentioned that everyone else seems to be growing it!

and now you are too 

[mumofstig]

Did I mention that mine are growing as well? 

[sunshineband]

Oca is taking over the UK as we speak (well, type actually but you know what I mean )

It's like the film The Day of the Triffids Oca
