| I am taking clippings of my potato vine plants to bring inside for next year. I have a green and a black potatoe vine. Both of them bloomed tremendous and over flowed their pots. They both made me look like an accomplished gardener, which I am far from right now.
Would someone like to trade either for another type of clipping or plant? |

| Not in zone 7. The first frost will kill it. |

| I read somewhere that you can save the potato and start them up again in the spring. |

| Yes, you can dig and overwinter the tubers and replant in the spring. Done it here in NC zone 7a several years ago. Treat them like dahlia tubers. |

| You can also dig them and eat them! |

| I did dig one up and cook it, but it was definately not as tastey as store bought. It could do in a pinch. Is is easier to start from tubular or cuttings? |
