A potato produce fruits,flowers and seeds but it dosent grow from seeds why?
It is easier to replicate potatoes from the eyes of the potatoes, which root readily and will give rise to new potato plants that will grow many more potatoes. Some types of commercial potatoes may no longer be able to produce actual seeds, since this quality is not desired. It is possible, however, to grow potatoes from seed, as this article points out, describing how in 2002, Peru began helping Afghanistan with growing potatoes after the war devastated agriculture.
