Dear Neighbors, I just pulled out a large clump of Jerusalem Artichoke tubers from my garden. I have put the small tubers in green newspaper bags (1 or 2 tubers per bag) by the rose bush at the foot of my driveway. Please come help yourself. Please also take only 1 or 2 bags so others may also have some. These plants are great natural screens. They grow about 7-10 feet tall, bloom with brilliant yellow daisy like flowers in the fall, require zero maintenance, and spread. I have not been able to produce tubers of a size worth eating. I've grown them for the flowers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_artichoke Enjoy. Joan S. 915 Farragut Street.
