Chris Hogg wrote: Photos of some tubers with shoots. Dug these up in my new garden a couple of days ago and don't know what they are. Some shoots are a bit green at the top. The biggest tubers are about an inch wide. Lots of baby ones too. I would guess Portland sago. aka Lords-and-Ladies, Cuckoo-Pint, etc. Berries are poisonous. It's not that the berries are poisonous, but that all parts of the plant are severely irritant, and the roots need treatment to turn them into the arrowroot (or Portland sago) of the kitchen. The berries are the part that are most attractive to the foolish. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
