Potatoes are one of the most prominent crops commercially harvested in the world. The tubers---called potatoes when dug up---grow on the roots of the potato plants.
Seed
The seed of a potato plant grows above the soil in the form of small berries. The berries contain many little seeds. A potato eye with green growth can be planted and it, too, sprouts potatoes.
Seedling
The seedling is barely leaves and stem. Underneath the ground, the roots stretch and baby potatoes form. The seedling looks like a smaller version of the adult plant.
Full-grown
Above ground, the tall plants possess more than one main stem with almond-shaped leaves clustering off small branches and toped with small five-petal flowers. Underground the roots grow, dotted with tubers called potatoes
Habitat
Cultivated potatoes grow in many counties around the world, including the United States. Wild potato plants are rarer.
Harvest
Dig or pull up the potatoes between 100 and 120 days after planting. New potatoes---tiny baby potatoes---can be harvested earlier.
