We completely agree. Its a strange time, but we felt it more safe for the public to stay close and encourage folks to stay home. We are getting ready now to open up preorder contactless pickups :). Thanks for taking the time to watch the video, like and subscribe!!
Many people know it as canna or canna lillie(it is not a lillie). Many know it is edible like true lillies & daylillies which are not true lillies. I wish you had talked or show how to prepare it the way you eat it.
Yes! This is a type of Cannas Lily. Cannas Edulis to be exact. We like to cal plants by the name of the local regions. Since they call it Achira in the Andes where this is from, that’s how we call it. I wanted to show the cooking and will show how to eat it in the future. It’s been a busy time for us and I don’t have my set up for food videos. But it goes like this. Peel it and boil it, or peel it, slice it thin, and make chips. Or peel it, grind it, dry it for flour
You can boil it like a regular potato and eat it as. It makes GREAT starch too! The starch is so good there is a national snack food in Colombia called Achira made from the flour. They taste pretty similar to Cheetos
One of the friendliest helpful places you can shop for organic plants.

Thanks for the video. I would like to buy some bulbs. Are you selling them? I am in CALIFORNIA, USA
Hey! We don’t currently ship :/ but if you ever come to south Florida we’ve got you!
Hey Jason. So what do we do with the Achira Root? dry it? Crush to make powder? Is it medicine? Or cook it? Thanks.
