Jerusalem Artichoke 'Fuseau', a close relative of the sunflower, is a hardy, easy-to-grow perennial vegetable that thrives in colder months when fresh produce is limited. Known for its sweet, nutty flavour, the tubers are packed with iron and have a smooth, creamy texture. They can be used just like potatoes or parsnips, making them versatile in the kitchen. Whether roasted, sautéed, fried, or blended into soups, they offer a delicious, nutritious addition to any meal. What sets 'Fuseau' apart is its smooth, thin skin, which makes peeling much easier than with other varieties. The plants are self-perpetuating, producing a new crop of tubers every year, and their tall stature makes them ideal for creating a natural windbreak in your garden or allotment. Height: 3m (10ft) Spread: 1m (39in) Perfect for growing in the winter months, Jerusalem Artichoke 'Fuseau' is a reliable, productive crop that adds both beauty and bounty to your garden.

Growing Information

Grow Jerusalem artichokes in moist but well drained soil in a position with some shade. Plant tubers from late winter to mid-spring. Plant horizontally 10-15cm deep, 30cm apart, in rows 90cm apart. When stems reach 30cm high earth them up. In mid-summer, cut back plants to 1.5-2m to concentrate energy in the developing tubers. Remove any flower buds and support plants with stakes. Cut down to 7.5cm when leaves wither in late autumn. Harvest from late October and throughout the winter months as required. Flavour improves after a frost. Save a few good quality tubers for replanting.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Suttons products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.

Unlike many companies, we publish all of our reviews - good or bad - to give you, the customer, total transparency and peace of mind.

Why Not Try This Instead

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
