Manihot esculenta 'Yucca Blanca'- Cassava

This South American shrub is cultivated as an annual crop in tropical and subtropical regions of the world for its edible starchy tuberous root, a major source of carbohydrates with a tasty flavour. Leaves are very ornamental.

If left free, it is becomes a perennial large shrub up to 4 m tall. It is winter-deciduous in non tropical climates.

It can be grown in pots, but think of pots large enough to allow tuber growth.

What do we ship?

We offer a 40/50 cm long thick cuttings, just the right size for easy rooting. But, due to beauraucratic reasons, we will ship one extra-long cutting that you can cut in three pieces. Be prepared to plant them in individual pots of at least 18 cm, filled with good garden soil and place them in full sun, at 18-30 C.  We ship worldwide.
