It wasn’t my intention, but here it is. Still too frosty to plant outside but it’s getting bigger every day.

This also isn’t the best pot to have used for transplanting, I have a feeling this thing will be too big in a week.

Advice is welcome. No I won’t eat this potato, because it’s raw.

    Also don’t plant any of the seeds these flowers may make. They could be poisonous.

    Potatoes (and tomatoes, and I think eggplants) are nightshades, and we grow them by sticking them in the ground because new offshoots are clones.

    Keep it as a flower, though, its neat.

      Two low glycoalkaloid varieties are unlikely to create a high glycoalkaloid variety (and its unlikely to find a high glycoalkaloid variety outside of south America. But it’s possible. Like two short people having a tall child.

      Also its probably sterile.
