Introduced from a virus free clone and has been phenomenally popular as this is similar to the tubers on supermarket shelves. Tubers tend to be smaller than T65 but have that distinctive salmon orange flesh with a sweeter more pronounced flavour.
Culinary uses similar as potatoes - boiled, steamed, baked, fried, mashed or batter fried as 'tempura'. The leaves and tips of young shoots can be cooked as a spinach substitute.
Important - We supply 'slips' (cuttings) which are despatched by First Class post in our special boxes and must be opened immediately. 'Slips' will look withered but just place in a glass of water overnight and then pot up individually the length of the stem to the base of the leaves (use our Sweet Potato Potting On Kit) for up to 3 weeks to establish prior to planting out.
Full cultural details sent with every order.

Demand has increased year on year over the past 3 years as gardeners find that growing a successful crop of sweet potatoes is rewarding and satisfying. Although considered a tropical plant it performs well in our climate, outdoors ideally through black plastic or in large containers under glass.
