120 Days. The Jícama plant is a climbing vine with trifoliate leaves and small, pale blue or white flowers, producing crunchy, sweet, and juicy tubers with a slightly nutty flavor. Native to Mexico and Central America, it can grow up to 4 meters long and requires a trellis for support. Sow seeds in well-drained soil, keeping it moist; germination takes 7-14 days at 15-21°C. Plant out after the last frost. Tubers develop over 5-9 months. Prune to encourage tuber growth and manage vine length.
Note: Only the tuber is edible; other parts of the plant are poisonous.
