Yacon Leaf Shape

[system]

Bill, I would like to add this photo to your assemblage of yacon leaves. It is from the ‘Original’ cultivar listed by Peace Seedlings. The midrib is pale green. Occasionally, a bit of purple streaking shows at the nodes but it is minor. This is my best effort to locate a representative leaf type.

Thanks for the picture. I think Original is the same as Late Red, although I haven’t grown it myself (I have been told by a customer who has grown them both that they appear identical).
