Sweet Potato Plant

I am going to take a picture of the most beautiful plant.  I put a sweet potato into a tall cup of water, change the water daily and after a couple of weeks, placed the plant out on the porch in direct sunlight.  I continued to keep the glass full of clean water.  Now, I have the most beautiful green leafed plant.  The potato started to get roots or thin, fine fibers.  So, today, I planted it in potting soil.  I hope that it continues to have those beautiful green leaves.  I love it.
