Jerusalem Artichoke 'Fuseau'Helianthus tuberosus 'Fuseau'

Grow Jerusalem artichokes in moist but well drained soil in a position with some shade. Plant tubers from late winter to mid-spring. Plant horizontally 10-15cm deep, 30cm apart, in rows 90cm apart. When stems reach 30cm high earth them up. In mid-summer, cut back plants to 1.5-2m to concentrate energy in the developing tubers. Remove any flower buds and support plants with stakes. Cut down to 7.5cm when leaves wither in late autumn. Harvest from late October and throughout the winter months as required. Flavour improves  after a frost. Save a few good quality tubers for replanting.
