Product Description

Once hugely popular and still highly regarded, this is a good choice for all-round use. The large white tubers are splashed with red and their creamy white flesh is of the highest quality.

Potatoes are one of the most rewarding vegetables to grow. There’s the nurturing process of chitting, planting and earthing-up, the anticipation of a good harvest as you dig through the soil and, of course, the unbeatable taste of fresh, home-grown, potatoes.

All potatoes (except for maincrops) will benefit from ‘chitting’ prior to planting out. The chitting process encourages the seed to sprout, which then when planted, helps them to establish more readily, leading to bigger crops. Simply place them, blunt end up, in an old egg box until the shoots are approximately 1½ to 2½cm (½ to 1in).

Potatoes are delivered in the following sizes:

- 1kg packs (approx 8-14 tubers per pack)

- 2.5kg packs (approx 20-35 tubers per pack)

- 5kg packs (approx 40-70 tubers per pack)
