When is the season for fresh suran (Amorphophallus paeoniifolius tuber eaten
in India)?


Hello Folks,
 
As Mark just reported, the 'season' when 'suran' become availabe here in the USA seems to be late fall and winter, which corresponds with the dry season in Jamaica where they are reportedly grown!   I just checked w/ my local Indian store owner, and he confirms this.

>>I noticed them at the markets late fall- early winter.
