Jerusalem artichokes

Yet another experiment! I saw Jerusalem artichokes in Bonus and bought a bag of them (these are from Denmark). I think it is rather late in the year to be planting them so they may not doa great deal but if they are tiny come autumn then I can replant and leave them over the winter so they get an early start next year. I put four of them in the spare square in the box where the potatoes and carrots are. If they grow then they will need staking. The carrot week carrots are still not up, no surprise there really.
