These ghostly White Yam Sweet Potato Slips look nothing like its golden-orange cousins, but has a sweet flavor as irresistible as its unusual white skin and flesh.
Easy to grow and nutritious, sweet potatoes also store well. Set these slips 12 to 15 inches apart in 3-foot rows in a sunny, well-drained spot. After harvest, cure the potatoes in a warm (85 degrees Fahrenheit is preferable) location for 2 weeks, then store at 60 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 to 8 weeks.
