Jerusalem Artichokes

A long patch of Sunchokes, a.k.a. Jerusalem Artichokes.  Great for a border plant, but can get away on you very quickly due to the quick spread.



Here they are at their peak in the summer…



Ready for harvest …



These tubers are delicious when used in recipes similar to potatoes, but can be hard on the stomach – google search on "inulin".
