Sunset Potato Maincrop 1kg
An improved Desiree! With better blight resistance and less bruising, this variety also shows good resistance to potato cyst nematode. Its flowers are violet red. A red-skinned potato with shallow eyes and a creamy flesh, Sunset brings all the qualities of the well-loved Desiree but with stronger disease resistance – a real advantage for the home gardener.
Excellent for roasting, baking, mashing, and making into chips or wedges thanks to its firm texture, it’s a true all-rounder in the kitchen. Reaching around 60cm in height, plants thrive in full sun with a neat, upright habit. Supplied as a 1kg pack (approx. 8–14 tubers), Sunset produces a rewarding harvest from September.
