Ornamental sweet potato sources?

Does anyone know where I can buy ornamental sweet potato tubers? I can buy the plants all day long but they usually don't have the tubers with the plants. I would rather buy the tubers and make my own plants each year.

Pie~ if you don't find a source for the tubers...buy a few plants and progate several stems in water. Then in the Fall, after the frost has kissed their leaves, dig up the tubers and store the tubers for next Spring.

I had about 5 plants last year but only one of them produced a tuber. Someone told me to use bloodmeal to get the tubers to produce this year if I can't find tubers for sale.

The one that produced a tuber was the only one in a pot. I wonder if extra moisture in the ground was the cause of no tubers being produced last year.

Pie~ check out this thread for propagating your tuber. I'm not familiar with the bloodmeal method. Hope this helps. http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/809595/
