Blight Resistant Sarpo Potato Collection
Product Description
Grow your own blight-resistant seed potatoes with our popular Sarpo collection, ideal for home gardens and allotments. Developed in Hungary, these varieties are specially bred for their outstanding taste and unparalleled resistance to potato blight.
Our great-value collection includes a 1kg pack each of three remarkable Sarpo seed potatoes:
Sarpo Mira: The first Sarpo variety introduced, Mira is hailed as one of the most blight-resistant seed potatoes ever developed. A great all-rounder, this pink-skinned floury seed potato is unappealing to slugs and also boasts excellent drought tolerance.
Sarpo Blue Danube: Known as the ‘Blue Sarpo’, this variety is an excellent all-round disease-resistant potato. Its dry, fluffy flesh makes it ideal for roasting, chipping, and baking. Thanks to its inbuilt dormancy, it can be stored from autumn to spring without sprouting or softening.
Sarpo Axona: A sister to the successful Sarpo Mira, the Axona is another heavy-yielding pink-skinned variety with exceptional blight resistance. Tasty and versatile, it’s suitable for all culinary uses – but makes particularly good jacket potatoes.
Our Sarpo collection promises a robust and reliable harvest, even in challenging conditions. Whilst not essential for maincrop seed potatoes, chitting can help provide an earlier crop. Simply place your seed potatoes, blunt end up, in an old egg box until the shoots are approximately 1½ to 2½cm (½ to 1in) long.
