Potato 'Nicola' - Part of the Alan Romans Collection

Solanum tuberosum
 

Second early.

Close grown ‘Nicola’, ‘Charlotte’ and ‘Maris Peer’ have become popular in recent decades to supply the demand for small, firm, waxy salad/ boiling potatoes with flavour. ‘Nicola’ is yellow fleshed, eelworm resistant and grows long if given space. It used to be blight resistant but recent strains have changed this. Many new varieties are 'designed' for Nicola’s niche but usually lack the flavour. Height and spread: 60cm (24").

Potato 'Edzell Blue' - Part of the Alan Romans Collection

Potato 'Edzell Blue' - Part of the Alan Romans Collection

Solanum tuberosum
 
  • NEW in 2013

Second early.

An old second early potato dating back to the early 1900’s. Stunning violet skinned tubers with contrasting white flesh make this a particularly attractive variety. Potato ‘Edzell Blue’ has a delicate flavour and floury texture that can be prone to collapse when boiled, but makes fabulous good chips, mash or roast potatoes. Height and spread: 60cm (24").
