Maincrop


Maincrop potato varieties produce larger varieties for baking and roasting. For best results, 'chit' the tubers and then plant up from March to mid May. The potatoes will be ready to harvest approximately 20 weeks after planting. Maincrop potatoes are best grown in the ground, where they will have more space. 'Sarpo' potatoes offer exceptional resistance to blight, a common problem in potatoes.

Potato : Sarpo Axona

Potato 'Sarpo Axona'

Solanum tuberosum

  Customer Rating

Late maincrop.

Sister line to the phenomenally popular ‘Sarpo Mira’ introduced in 2005. Potato ‘Sarpo Axona’ is very similar in all respects, particularly with its outstanding blight resistance, but the tubers are more regular in shape and the flesh is slightly more creamy. This late maincrop has superb flavour and is suitable for all culinary uses. Height and spread: 60cm (24").

Potato : Blue Danube

Potato 'Blue Danube'

Solanum tuberosum, Potato 'Adam Blue'

  Customer Rating

Early maincrop.

Potato ‘Blue Danube’ (previously known as ‘Adam Blue’) is the latest introduction from Sárvári, without the Sárpo prefix. The stunning blue-purple skinned oval tubers have bright white flesh of good flavour, that are excellent for general culinary purpose - larger tubers bake particularly well. This early maincrop shows moderate foliage blight resistance and excellent tuber blight resistance. Height and spread: 60cm (24").
