Maria planted lots of Jerusalem Artichokes last April and now we are harvesting buckets of these tasty tubers.
Jerusalem Artichokes or Sunchokes are a perennial sunflower with tasty potato-like tubers. 6-8 ft tall with daisy-like flowers, sunchokes are very hardy and can become weedy, so plant them in a bed that is permanent. Harvest from August through late fall. Nutty tasting tubers become sweeter after frost when left in the ground!
