Funny story about this! A few years ago, I got The Art of the Bonsai Potato as a birthday gift. Along with it, I got two blue/purple potatoes (kinda like these). Now, the first step to growing a bonsai potato is to put them in a dark place to grow out the sprouts, which become your bonsai. I put the two potatoes in my drawer of random crap with nowhere else to go, and then I completely fucking forgot about them (I'd be a horrible bonsai grower). Months later, I went to grab something from that drawer, and the two potatoes had sprouted magnificently! Unfortunately, in the process they had entrapped everything in the drawer into a tangled mess of sprouts, which I had to cut off to retrieve anything. The potatoes themselves had almost completely wasted away providing nutrition to their sprouts, so they were useless for bonsai. I wish I still had pictures, because it was one of the most impressive things I've ever witnessed.

TL;DR Was a terrible bonsai potato grower, drawer consumed by my negligence.

This reminds me on a Bonsai Potato kit I bought when I was younger:

I had potatoes hidden in different cupboard around the house, and actually spent time trimming them. One day, I picked up a potato and it burst, leaking rotten potato gunk all over me.
