Enjoy fresh, homegrown new potatoes on your dinner table this Christmas Day.

A dependable British-grown second early variety prized for its rich, earthy flavour and versatile culinary performance[cite: 3]. Perfect for summer planting in potato bags or garden trenches, producing firm oval tubers that hold their shape exceptionally well when boiled, roasted, or mashed.

Details:

  • High-Yielding Second Early Variety: Renowned for producing generous crops of uniform, oval tubers with smooth skin and creamy yellow flesh.
  • Versatile Kitchen All-Rounder: Features a medium-dry texture that will not break apart easily, making it a great choice if you are looking to roast, boil, chip, or mash freshly harvested potatoes.
  • Pack Contents: Contains 10 quality-assured seed potato tubers ready for immediate planting upon arrival.
  • Summer Planting Window: Plant outdoors between late July and September to allow root development ahead of the autumn cooling.
  • Extended Winter Harvest: Ready to crop within approximately 12 weeks from November through January, perfectly timed for festive roasts.
  • Container and Bag Growing: Place 10cm of moist compost into a potato bag, space 3 tubers evenly, and continue earthing up as haulms grow until the container is full.
  • Open Ground Spacing: Plant 10cm to 13cm deep, spaced 20cm to 23cm apart, with 50cm between rows in fertile, free-draining soil.
  • Frost Protection Advice: Protect tubers from heavy frost by moving containers into a sheltered, frost-free shed or greenhouse, or insulate outdoor rows with a thick layer of straw.
