King Edward
Red duke of York
Casablanca

And maybe some new varieties

Lady Christl
Juliette
Desiree

If I get my second plot there may be more!

When I gave up my plot, I left 2 polystyrene boxes of King Edwards in sawdust so that's what I would have been growing had I not given it up.............

**Thelma Sanders** · 24-11-2013, 10:35 AM

Lady Christl, Desiree and a few Charlottes if I can squeeze them in somewhere...................

Oh for a bigger plot!

Rocket, Kestrel, Mayan Gold and Sarpo Mira for us.

Bill- the Sarpo's were �7.99 for 60 tubers last year.

First year growing spuds and ive got half a plot just for them !!!

Looking at growing a salad potato...maybe Charlotte and/or Anya

International kidney (Jersey Royal) is a must

King Edwards for a late crop.

I'll see what else i can shoe-horn in !!!! lol I enjoy growing things that are a bit different to the norm so any suggestions ??? Pink fir apple looks good for a maincrop.

Having said that, I might swap the Sarpo Mira for Sarpo Axona. The Mira are good but ours were really irregular in size, the Axona is still supposed to be blight resistant but more regular and consistent in shape.
