3 Sweet Potato Plants/Slips - Murasaki Purple,Japanese Sweet potato, Yellow Flesh

The seller should be ashamed to send these things they called slips, these will definitely not grow or produce anything so don’t waste your money on this seller, I’m still waiting for seller to contact me to replace the slips or refund my money

Package came on the delivery date. Potato slips were fresh and in good condition. Would purchase from this store again.Trudy Wilkinson.

I have grown different varieties of potatoes for several years and decided I wanted to try this Japanese variety (I love the flavor).Unfortunately only a few farms seem to be selling these. Blindly with few reviews I went with this company.To my uter dissapointment I received three potatoes that looked like bottom of the barrel store bought ones, unprotected in just a shipping box. I could have picked up better at my local Japanese grocery market. They were not beginning to grow (every seeding potatoe I have purchased in the past have the eyes beginning to sprout) and looked unhealthy at best. They are also usually protected in a bag along with some soil.Not knowing this variety I still decided to give them a try and with great care and with excellent soil, I attempted to get them to begin growing (I actually tried two different ways to get them to start). As you can imagine I got nothing. No growth at all after 3 weeks. Just sickly dead potatoes.I guess I will be giving up on this variety until a farm I can trust starts selling them. Do not be like me. Skip this company.

I planted them the same day the post office delivered them. I received 4 little plants (not 3). It took several days for the new leaves to start budding but that’s normal. I love eating this type of sweet potato so I hope I get a good harvest.

I only bought 3 slips and planted them as soon as I received them. I just harvested them and had huge sweet potatoes and lots of them. Im still blown away at the number of sweet potatoes and their size. The largest is a heavy one, it is at least a foot long, probably more and about 5-6 inches in the largest part of it. I have quite a few similar and a couple almost the same size. I have a lot that are normal range sizes, so lots of sweet potatoes from 3 slips. I recommend this seller to purchase the slips and get ready for a great output.

Slips are parts of a potato that have thee eyes grown out an eye and producing roots. These are sticks. cuttings, at best with no leaves, no roots. I will attempt to make them into slips but, WOW, what a racket they have going on! must be nice with such a low cost high profit sale.

Slips in first order were not viable and had to be returned. Replacement order was very healthy. These photos were both taken first day the slips arrived.

These slips came and were about 3" long and appeared to be cuttings from mid-vine with tiny almost roots making an effort. I immediately planted them in good soil in a pot to give them a chance, but within 24 hours they were dried up and dead. I had hoped for plants with sturdier roots and perhaps a few leaves, so they would have a good start. These were of no use.
