Potatoes are grown best in the Caribbean. in the Caribbean there are two types of potao sweet potato and Irish potato. Then the main stem of the plant stops growing and produces a flower bud. When that happens, the plant will have as many leaves as it will ever have.

With proper sunshine, the leaves eventually produce more food than the plant needs, and the excess energy is channeled downward to be stored in the "tubers" -- thick, short, underground stems -- which we simply call potatoes. Irish potato tubers develop above the original seed piece, rather than below it like many other underground vegetables.
