I just dismantled three or four pots, from container this past summer's
container plantings. Out of these pots I recovered a handful of Ipomoea "
Blackie" and "Tri-color". One of the pots had a full sized tuber ( weighing a
couple of pounds!). I was wondering if you could start more plants with the
tuber, like you would a regular potato? Slice in sections, dust with sulphur
and pot?
ANy help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
