Default growing cassava (yuca)
Growing cassava by my dwarf Orinoco plants, they wintered over from cuttings last June 2013.

Anyone in California grow it successfully?

My son in Law got the cuttings from someone in Florida.

The net says you need at least 8-12 months for the tubers to form depending on the variety.

You are most likely warmer in southern Louisiana than me.

I am going to pull up some of the plants to check next weekend.

Thanks for the reply Eddie

I'm going to study a little about his plant and see if I can acquire some from some source!

Anybody know if the tubers can be dug and stored for winter? Just wanting them for the ornamental value.

Do they have a fast growth rate? I could probably keep a stock plant to take cuttings from in my greenhouse, and plant cuttings out each year.
