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 : 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").
