We took all our leftover tubers and mixed them together, each pot has 2-4 varieties in it.  Great way to experiment and get a bargain!

Native to the central Andes region of South America Oca is grown as an important root crop second only to potatoes. Also very popular in New Zealand where it is simply called yam. An herbaceous perennial plant it produces clusters of light red, delicious and nutritious edible tubers that store well and can be eaten raw, roasted and in soups and stir-fries.  Succulent clover-like foliage is also edible and good as a green vegetable. New Zealand Red is non-sweet and slight tart with a potato texture. It is less sprawling and more upright than other Oca Varieties. Its looks great too with deep red stems on the foliage.
