At more than $4.00 per pound I wondered if they were worth it. When I finally decided to buy them, I found they sprouted well and grew slips easily. With six pounds of potatoes, they made more slips than I needed. I could supply the entire neighborhood with new Murasaki sweet potato plants. They also grew well (growing zone 7) and I had a decent harvest. What impressed me the most is the taste. I think they taste better than the common orange sweet potato. Also, I have been told they have more vitamins than other types of sweet potato. I’m glad I finally decided to try this variety. I will definitely grow it again next year. Review: They have no flavor and have a lot of holes - I have ordered these before and they were very tasty but this time it had no flavor at all. They were full of little holes and tastes like nothing. Very disappointed since I paid almost double the price then at my local store.

Loved the texture of these potatoes!
I loved these sweet potatoes! I loved the texture, so different from the usual ones from the store. I will certainly be buying again!

Way too big
I'm used to Korean sweet potato's being a standard size these were huge and not very convenient. I'm talking the order was 6 lbs and there was 3 sweet potatos. I'd order again but if they were that big again I'd probably never order again.

Super expensive and not well sorted
I ordered these from Amazon, got them about a week or so later, but what got me is that for the price we paid, the one who selected and packed them, did not do a great job at getting the best ones. One of them had a bit of a bad spot on it, which means we had to cut it off and throw it away. Like they say, once bitten, twice shy! I will NOT order them online again and neither will I recommend the seller. We love the white sweet potatoes but this was a dumb mistake by us ordering online at a ridiculously expensive price and expecting sweet-potatoes without bad spots/soft spots!

Not as sweet as regular sweet potatoes
Fresh and stayed good for a long time. Delicious taste & are better for you than other potatoes. Not as sweet as a sweet potato but are very good. I wanted to try these to make sweet potato toast and they work wonderfully for my recipie.
