Overview
Jícama Seeds Pachyrhizus erosus 20 pcs Useful Climbing Plant with Edible Tuber of Sweet Juicy Taste for Greenhouse, Flowerbed or Pot

Pachyrhizus erosus, known as jícama, is a tropical useful climbing plant cultivated for its large edible tuber. The tuber has a brown skin and white juicy flesh that is sweet and crunchy, as can be seen in the image of the cut fruit. Only the tuber is edible, which can be eaten raw or cooked. It is important to note that the seeds, pods, and leaves of jícama are toxic and are not suitable for consumption. The pack contains 20 seeds, providing you with a sufficient supply to grow multiple plants and for repeated sowing. Jícama can be grown in a flowerbed, greenhouse, or large pot.

Key Features:

  • Edible tuber — a large underground tuber with white juicy flesh that is sweet and crunchy, can be eaten raw or cooked, and is the main benefit of the plant.
  • Sweet juicy flesh — the white flesh has a taste reminiscent of something between an apple and a water chestnut, is refreshing, and is particularly popular raw in salads.
  • Caution toxic parts — the seeds, pods, and leaves of jícama are toxic and must not be consumed; only the underground tuber is edible.
  • Useful climbing plant — the plant produces long climbing shoots that can be trained along supports, and stores reserves in the tuber underground.
  • Suitable for growing in a flowerbed or greenhouse — jícama is grown in a flowerbed, greenhouse, or large pot in a sunny and warm location with enough space for the tuber.
  • Suitable for training along supports — long climbing shoots can be trained along a trellis or pergola, making the plant an interesting green backdrop in the garden.
  • Pack of 20 seeds — a larger supply of seeds allows for the cultivation of more plants at once, repeated sowing at different times, and sharing with other growers.
  • Growing from seeds — you have full control over the plant's development from germination to tuber harvest and can observe each growth phase.
  • Exotic vegetable — jícama is a common vegetable in the tropics, but still unusual here, so it will add an interesting novelty to your garden.

Contents of the package:

  • 1x pack of Pachyrhizus erosus seeds (20 pcs)
