Potato plants typically grow to a height of about 2 to 4 feet.
Potato beetles probably can not eat lettuce. Potato beetles evolved in the Rocky Mountains of North America. They could only live on a plant similar to a potato. When farmers began growing potatoes, they moved to potato plants. They were able to live on their original hosts as well as potato plants. In fact, potato plants provided a better place for them. So, the fact that they were unable to spread until they could move to potato plants makes it seem like it will be difficult to find somewhere else they can grow.
Some plants can change the angle of their leaves to follow the sun, they also have ways to deal with excess light or water.
Potato plants can grow to be about 2 to 4 feet tall when they reach maturity.
Potato plants do produce seeds, but they are not commonly used for propagation. Instead, potatoes are typically grown from tubers, which are the swollen underground stems of the plant. These tubers are cut into pieces, each containing an "eye" or bud, and planted to grow new potato plants.
