Growing Information

Wild Yam prefers full sun to partial shade and moderate watering, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. It grows best in well-drained soil rich in organic matter and is hardy in zones 4 through 9. The vine can climb up to 10 feet, making it a versatile plant for vertical gardening.

For planting, place the rhizome just below the soil surface with the bud facing upward. Space rhizomes 6 inches apart, with rows 6 to 12 inches apart. Apply a mulch layer such as hardwood leaves or shredded bark, raking it back 1 to 2 inches before the plants emerge in spring.
