Default Dioscorea batatas (hardy Yam)

I'm wondering whether to give this a go this year. Chiltern has seed, and
www.futurefoods.com has tubers.

Is it worth growing? Anyone here growing it? The suppliers reckon it is
mostly hardy, and as I am in Cornwall I could take the chance - but on the
other hand my garden looks straight North to Dartmoor, and there was still
frost on the lawn at lunchtime....
