Growing your own spuds is easier than you think with these unusual potato varieties. They are hardy
and easy to grow, with a wonderful flavour whether eaten 'old' or 'new'. Each kilo pack contains
between 10 - 18 tubers, depending on type, of certified virus-free (VICSPA) seed potatoes. Expect a
yield of approximately ten times the amount you plant. In order to achieve your own year-round planting
stock, save tubers from your harvest in a cool, dark, dry place and replant as suits your climate zone.
We will automatically substitute a different variety when sold out, unless you indicate otherwise.

If space is limited and you would still like to grow your own spuds in a courtyard or on a
balcony, then Planter Bags are a great
idea. Check that the area is in full sun. Keep in mind that Planter Bags full of spuds are pretty
heavy so a balcony would need to be capable of supporting the extra weight.
