Melothria pendula, Tricosanthes japonica and Dioscorea bulbifera all sprouting on the windowsill.

@tonythorne007 @OffsideOlivier Oh, interesting! It seems they call Dioscorea bulbifera 'air potato' in English but these are Sechium edule, which are 'patata del aire' locally but apparently known as 'chayote' in English. They look really different although the concept seems to be similar.

@Rhizowen Pulled out some of those roots yesterday trying to separate the pentocz pot from the Dioscorea bulbifera pot where the former had re-rooted itself.

Papa de aire, papa voladora, papa de india, Dioscorea Bulbífera. Es un ñame aéreo contrario al común que crece debajo de la tierra, según los campesinos de los montes, esto se come. Lo sembré y ya tengo papas. Aún no lo pruebo, tampoco me gusta la insipidez del ñame. https://t.co/OE3xcGpLOT
