Would you some??i'm sure i could mail some of the heirloom variety's that are in the photos below.




Your latitude of 46 deg north is the same equivalent the main growing area of Oca in New Zealand,its a lot colder there than where i am which is 43 deg south which still an OK area for growing them,
The commercial growers down south grow by the coast which is still frost free but would still have similar temps about what you get late season.

A few photos taken today on how i'm growing mine
