| Sweet Potato Slips - Individual Slip Varieties | ||
Asian Green Variety
We received this variety from an Asian grower that grew them for greens. Grown for the vines which are very good cooked liked spinach. Don’t expect a root crop on these, but if you do get some roots, they will be white skin and flesh. |

| Okinawa Purple
Light beige skin, purple flesh. Flesh gets darker and deeper purple when cooked. They are surprisingly sweet when cooked. Pretty foliage plant as well. Slow grower. Needs a VERY long, hot growing season. Preferably 140 days or longer. Originally from Japan…They will form roots out away from the center of the plant... Attention: we only recommend these for trial, as they are not high production and need a very long season and not adapted to all of the US especially the north. |
