During the next few months the potato sprouted roots and leaves which grew
into vines. The root and leaves grew and grew until we decided that we didn't have a container large enough to hold them and it was time to transfer the potato into the ground.
The children enthu
siastically dug a large hole and planted the potato in it. They replaced the soil and carefully watered the plant. We will be o
bserving our plant and hope it will continue to flourish.
We would love to hear from anyone who knows how we will know if potatoes are growing underground.
