    Ube should be included as one of the powerful characters of plants versus zombies 🤣. It has its roots and vine leaves to kill the zombies.

    Wendi, I forwarded this video to my sister because we ordered some gorgeous purple Ube pancakes a few weeks ago at a restaurant and were so intrigued, and since she loves to grow things, I wanted to share your video with her. Thank you so much! I appreciate your joy and enthusiasm!
  • Ube vines is so invasive and it grows so fast. I remember my mom always getting angry with my dad coz he always plant his ube near her garden.

    I love to eat sweet potato and also love to harvest sweet potato's leaves for cooking. Thanks for your informative video Wendi.
  • i could feel your excitement showing your fruit of labor!! it is truly a satisfying moment. My journey of gardening just started about 2 years ago and i feel so happy every time i see a seed has sprouted. FYI, i started planting sugar snap peas last december after seeing your video. very happy everyday picking them from the garden

    We harvested ours for the first time in 8 years and the vines grew over 30 feet high (grew on one of our oak trees). It’s planted in the ground behind a shed and gets little to no sun. It’s very bountiful every time we harvest. Thanks for explaining that you can plant the ones that grow on the vine (out of the ground). I was trying to find this out so I could pant some at my house.

    As you were digging around the plant's tuber, I could feel your energy way up this way Wendi! That is not only a productive vine, but also a vine with a richly colored yield. I sure would love to be able to see you at a place with a bit of land to work with. Happy Gardening! -Bob...
