An edible Canna similar in appearance to its close relative the ornamental Cannas. Another of the Ancient Inca food crops, it was one of the first plants to have been domesticated in the Andean region. A popular crop in the market place in Peru and Ecuador. The large round red rhizomes can be eaten raw, cooked as you would a potato or used as a flour and thickening agent.

While the tubers multiply prolifically in deep rich friable soil, they are the most hardy of all the tuber crops and grow well in soils where most other tubers will not grow. Has few problems with pests and diseases. Can be harvested after 6 months. Will tolerate heat and frosts.

I am growing 3 in a greenhouse down south in Apollo Bay, VIC. It is doing well but I assume slower growing than other warmer areas! The leaves smell like mushroom, very glossy.

Being in Sydney I was hesitant but decided to have a go. Mine really suffered through its first winter. It bounced back and grew well though spring and summer but now coming into winter again it's not happy. It's a bit fiddly to use but I love the taste.

I read about this plant, excited for more leaves for a good harvest. Bought it at masters hoping it will grow well.

Took a little while to establish, but lots of new growth despite plenty of leaf harvesting.  Great plants.  They don't like to dry out, or too much sun.  Have an inch of mulch on the surface to help with water retention.
