Good, I dunno what form it is, but it's certainly one of the hardier types and makes huge leaves into the bargain. I've got a couple from several years ago and could do with a few more. Focus is closing down here, so I'd better get my skates on.

20p at an asian shop chig, ive got 40 in pots and sprouting through now,

I wish i had an asian shop in my town they always seem to sell tropical stuff

[Panama Pete]

I have one where the bulb is a ridiculous size the other day. I know there are black magic varieties etc...but im going to see how i get on this year first...as i can afford to dispose of at that price

Mr G

Where in Woking is the Asian shop?

[Tiddy]

Asian supermarket? are they in the gardening section or are they sold as food?

[Mr List]

you have an asian super market with a gardening section?

[derrick]

There sold as food in the Asian shop Edoes Coco Yam or Dasheen you can buy a bag for 2 squid Edoes Dasheen are types of Colocasia Esculenta .But the large Yam is a vine not a Colocasia .There must be about 8 Asian Shops in Southampton i have some from last year .They need alot of heat an water in the growing season .

Same here, got three for 42p as the girl rang them up as potatoes instead of Eddoes! Complete bargain and they are sprouting nicely in some damp coir.
