Tropical root vegetable (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taro

'tropical root vegetable' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for taro that I've seen before include "Root to eat" , "Starchy plant" , "Starchy food" , "Chinese eddo" , "A rot turns the lily-like plant" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
