No. Copper jewel. Orange flesh, but the foliage does have the tinge.
So, in this relatively short amount of time, the original potato has completely rotted. So I took all of the slips that were still alive, rooted them, and they are growing on separately now.
This is one of the two pots, I have a total of about 13 growing, and I’m hoping that they’ll get long enough that I can take yet another set of cuttings off of these before it’s time to plant. However, the growth so far (since the original sweet potato rotted and I rooted them) is sloooooowwwwwwwwww.
I did that this winter! I now have a nice house plant. But our winters are very long.

I’m wondering why it rotted. Considering people start them IN WATER and they last a while, and I used a well drained media!
Maybe too hot? The heat mat kept it close to 90. It sprouted FAST…but maybe the heat rotted it?
