** CANNOT BE SHIPPED OUTSIDE OF CANADA **
PLANT IN POT UPON RECEIPT (FOR SPRING ORDERS)! Vigorous and productive perennial, it produces small, elongated tubers with a hazelnut or water chestnut flavor. Very hardy in Quebec, yet comes from China. Harvest when the leaves have faded at the end of the season. Germination rate 100%

MAINTENANCE AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
"Each tuber can sprout and give rise to a plant. Place each tuber in a horizontal position, at a depth of about 2 cm, much like you would with a potato. (However, the crosne does not cut into several pieces like the latter). Leave 20 cm between each. You can mulch lightly, the stem will pass through a mulch. After a few days a stem will come out of the ground. Harvest: In the fall, when the leaves have faded, dig up the fork the tubers. A single tuber will give about thirty crosnes. You will have to dig up a little further than the place where you planted. Put back a single tuber in the same place in anticipation of next year's harvest. Mulch. Crosne withstands Quebec winters very well. Enjoy the rest raw or cooked in butter in a frying pan."
