Each First Wednesday of the month, we drop a new, rarer plant that we only offer for a limited time. This week, we have 12 Ube Plants firmly rooted in a 1-quart pot.
Grow your own delicious ube with this tropical yam, Dioscorea alata, prized for its vibrant purple flesh and rich, subtly sweet flavor. This vigorous plant thrives in warm climates and is a fantastic choice for edible gardens, tropical landscapes, and anyone looking to grow this unique and flavorful crop at home. Because ube is a vigorous vine that can spread readily, growing it in a raised bed or other contained planting area is a great way to keep its growth under control.
- Mature Height: 24–36 inches
- Light: Full sun to partial sun
- Watering: Keep soil consistently moist; do not allow it to dry out between waterings
- Growing Zones: USDA Zones 10–11

We sell baby plants
Wellspring Gardens is the starter plant, AKA “baby plant” shop. We just get you started, so you get all the credit for raising your plants under your green thumb.
How tall are baby plants?
We aim to ship your plants when they’re 3-8” tall, though we often ship them taller than that.
What determines whether I get a 3-, 6-, or even 18-inch-tall plant?
The exact size of the plant we send you is variable on the time of year and how long we've been growing it out.
