Well, maybe more of a pumpkin instead of a potato. Giant stump I rescued from my sister's house after she brutally cut it down to the ground. I potted it up last spring. What I had was basically a football sized hunk of root with maybe an inch or two above the soil line. It only has pencil sized branches now, and it will never fit the description of a bonsai, but it has a very interesting shape and now......a flower. There are at least 10 more flower buds on it. Just an interesting plant to display alongside my bonsai.
Side note. A VERY invasive plant here so all prunings go into the burn pile. Pruning is not a pleasant experience!
