Casablanca (Extra Early): Long oval tubers with a white flesh ooze great taste and a perfect all-rounder for kitchen use. Could become an exhibitors classic too. Excellent resistance to disease and to eelworm.

Charlotte (Second Early): This French-bred, highly popular potato is the salad variety of choice of many discerning chefs. The smooth skinned tubers have a light yellow flesh which has a wonderful flavour and delightfully waxy texture. A further advantage is its resistance to scab and blight.

Cara (Maincrop): A great favourite with our allotmenteer customers. Cara gives heavy yields of smooth skinned, round tubers with shallow red eyes. It is ideal for baking and plants have good resistance to eelworm, virus and blight.

Potatoes are one of the most rewarding vegetables to grow. There’s the nurturing process of chitting, planting and earthing-up, the anticipation of a good harvest as you dig through the soil and, of course, the unbeatable taste of fresh, home-grown, potatoes.

All potatoes (except for maincrops) will benefit from ‘chitting’ prior to planting out. The chitting process encourages the seed to sprout, which then when planted, helps them to establish more readily, leading to bigger crops. Simply place them, blunt end up, in an old egg box until the shoots are approximately 1½ to 2½cm (½ to 1in).

All of our seed potatoes are certified "Safe Haven" or equivalent status. The Safe Haven Certification Scheme provides protection for the British potato industry and its customers from bacterial ring rot and other harmful organisms like brown rot and soft rots caused by Dickeya species. The scheme ensures that all seed is only grown from Safe Haven sourced seed or nuclear stock and this helps protect against any pests and diseases which affect potato and are not found in Britain. All our customers can therefore be assured of first class quality seed potatoes for their gardens and allotments.


Potatoes are delivered in 1.5kg bags, each pack containing approx. 15-20 tubers.
