Sunchoke Seeds for Planting - Vegetable Plant

Sunchoke seeds produce perennial flowering plants commonly known as Jerusalem artichokes. These plants are cultivated for their underground tubers and tall sunflower like growth habit. They are adaptable to a range of climates and soil conditions and are commonly planted in vegetable gardens, edible landscapes, and naturalized outdoor areas. The plants develop upright stems with broad green leaves and yellow blooms during the growing season. Once established, they can return seasonally in suitable growing environments and perform best in full sun locations with moderate soil moisture.
