Growing Yacon, also Sunroot

View the Yacon page

Is it too late to plant Yacon in Brisbane in September? Also, could you please tell me why, after about 11 months, the stems of the Yacon I planted last year had still not died back. The crop was small, I no doubt needed more organic matter. Thanks so much Kind regards Christine
