Ipomoea pandurata the Wild Potato Vine, Big-rooted Morning Glory or Man-of-the-Earth is a species of herbaceous perennial vine. Another common name is "manroot", but that typically refers to the quite unrelated gourd genus Marah.
It is rarely cultivated but grows wild in North America appearing along roadsides, in fields and along fence rows. It sustains itself over the winter with a tuberous root similar to its better known relative, the Sweet Potato (I. batatas).
