I've just recently purchased a new potato vine (I believe it is Dioscorea
discolor)....this one is much more showy and has a nice variegation in the
leaves...I have it pictured at

The leaves are a different shades of green w/silver. The stems, as well as
the undersides of the leaves, are a pink-purple color. Does anyone know if
this one will produce the "potatoes" on the vine like my common one?
Happy Gardening
