Description

Tom Brown at West Dean does brilliant plant trials every year which I visit as he gets his marking pad out. Last year it was sweet potatoes — and these were his front runners. ‘Beauregard’, ‘Bonita’ and ‘Evangeline’, the most productive, large rooted, reliable forms for our climate.

This collection contains:
  • 1 rooted cutting of Sweet Potato 'Bonita' Organic
  • 2 rooted cuttings of Sweet Potato 'Beauregard' Organic
  • 2 rooted cuttings of Sweet Potato 'Evangeline' Organic

Care Tips

Sweet potatoes need warm conditions to thrive and fertile but free-draining soil. They can be grown in containers - choose a large one which holds at least 15 litres of compost.
