ArrowRoot ... the ultimate permaculture plant
$5
An edible Canna similar in appearance to its close relative the ornamental Cannas.
Another of the Ancient Inca food crops, it was one of the first plants to have been domesticated in the Andean region. A popular crop in the market place in Peru and Ecuador. The large round red rhizomes can be eaten raw, cooked as you would a potato or used as a flour and thickening agent. Excellent carbohydrate, the starch is easily digested and is a promising food source.
The young shoots can also be eaten as a green vegetable. The plant is easy to plant, to grow and to harvest. While the tubers multiply prolifically in deep rich friable soil, they are the most hardy of all the tuber crops and grow well in soils where most other tubers will not grow.
Has few problems with pests and diseases. Can be harvested after 6 months. Will tolerate heat and light frosts.
