The sunflower plants I have has flowers that are only about 5" across and the stalks grow to 12 feet in heighth. The clusters are triangular shaped, about 5" long and 3 inches wide with potato like knobs attached to them. When cut, they smell similiar to a potato.
Are the fleshy white clusters attached to sunflower roots edible?
Sounds like we call Jerusalem artichokes or sunchokes. Check this link to see if it is the same plant. If so then they are edible and delicous raw or cooked.
