Description

These trialled excellently at the garden at Perch Hill and I just had to create a collection of my favourites. They have a remarkable resilience to blight, and their creamy textures make them ideal for many culinary recipes.

This collection contains 1kg bag each of:
  • Potato 'Carolus'
  • Potato 'Picasso'
  • Potato 'Sarpo Axona'

Care Tips

Plant in ground that has had lots of compost or manure added to it. When the shoots first appear draw the earth from between the rows to cover them. This protects them from frost and encourages underground shoots and more tubers.
