Introducing the RHS Award of Garden Merit-winning Casablanca potato variety: an extra early seed potato that has garnered rave reviews from our customers. This new, fast-growing Scottish potato offers a perfect blend of quality and versatility.

The Casablanca potato variety produces long, medium-sized oval tubers with shallow eyes, smooth white skin, and creamy white flesh bursting with flavour. A fantastic early-cropping all-rounder, it excels in various culinary applications – whether baked, boiled, or chipped.

This disease-resistant seed potato is an excellent choice for newcomers to potato growing and is rapidly becoming an exhibitor's classic. It boasts excellent resistance to common diseases and eelworms. Its compact growth also makes the Casablanca ideal for patio potato planters, bringing the joy of home-grown potatoes to even the smallest spaces.

To maximise your Casablanca potato harvest, we recommend chitting prior to planting out. This process encourages seed potatoes to sprout, allowing them to establish more readily and leading to bigger crops. Simply place them in an old egg box, blunt end up, until the shoots are approximately 1 ½ to 2½ cm (½ to 1in) long.

Casablanca has become my favourite general purpose potato. We get eelworm very badly on the allotment. Not only is Casablanca resistant, but it is lifted before the eel worm can start to infect the potatoes.They are a decent size and we had good yields (1-2 kg per plant) are great for mash and roasting.~~I didn't bother chitting and got still got excellent results.

I bought these as part of a kit. I was very happy with them. All 3 planters had a good crop. The potatoes were also good - we've roasted whole, small ones, as well as various other cooking styles. I'll be growing these again - perhaps in the ground if I can get it prepared in time, but also some in my planters.

First time growing Casablanca but won't be the last. Beautiful flavour with no blemish or disease, cannot recommend highly enough.

Tried these potatoes for the first time this year. Great Yeild, good flavour, I left them a bit late to lift and they got rather large but kept them and they were still good, roasted, chipped, baked and more importantly did NOT go mushy when boiled. Good potato.
