This fast growing artichoke grows up to 12 ft. in height and spreads by long rhizomes. The smooth red tubers have no knobs which makes it easy to clean. Tubers average 1" in diameter and up to 6” long. Always productive even in poor soil. An attractive colorful sunchoke Red Rover is easy to grow. Ripens in October. Widely adaptable in a variety of soils. Certainly one of our most popular sunchokes.
This native member of the sunflower family is a strong spreading perennial with beautiful yellow daisy flowers crowning tall green leafy stalks in late summer. The tubers, or sunchokes, are best harvested in the late fall and are fine to harvest until growth begins again in the spring. They taste great when cooked, boiled or sautéed; and are especially delicious as a potato substitute in a German potato salad recipe.
Permaculturists like Helianthus tuberosus because it’s a hefty producer and a great companion plant. One can produce hundreds of pounds of tubers in say, a 6×16 foot garden bed, during one season.
