Wonderful Meanie.....I've been wanting to grow this for years but never managed to.........

It's very easy Janey. Needs heat to get started, and essential to dry the tubers out cleanly before storing. I let them die back in September last year.

Thanks for the info Meanie.....where abouts in the garden have you got it?

Strictly in the conservatory for me except on fine days!!
One tuber at the beginning of the season was two by the end of it last year. If that continues, I'll pot one up to try outside next year.
