Berksmike,

go to Tesco's and they sell packets of Fuseau jerusalem artichokes for 99p. I should imagine most of the big 4 will sell them. I bought a packet to plant and left them in the lottie shed for a week, upon my return they were chitting well so were planted post haste.

An easy way to get them without having to mess about with postage etc.

You need to be quick, they're starting to sprout and need to get in the ground. Have a look on eBay
