I think it’s neat how much the potato plant looks like a green rose.
I never realized a potato plant grew like this… but then I’ve never had a day-to-day view of a potato plant growing in a bucket.
Perhaps it’ll start to get taller this week and will become a potato plant.
I hope you all had a good weekend
and will have a nice week of sunshine.

It sure is fun following along with your potato in a bucket!

It amazes me how quickly the potato peelings sprout when I throw them on the compost heap. Thinking back to thee flowers -are they a member of the deadly nightshade family?

Hi Piglet
If a person wanted too, I think they could grow a good size crop with sprouting potato peelings. I’m not sure how hardy a store bought potato is compared to a seed potato.
In answer to the question, Yes, potatoes and also tomatoes, eggplant, bell/chili peppers are in the nightshade family.
It’s good to see you again. Thanks for visiting and leaving me a comment.
