An old potato from the East Coast, and is still well known over here. Its growing habit is very amazing, when you dig them up you see that the potatoes grow on long runners in the ground, like strings of potatoes in a line. They are oblong shaped, with round ends, have purple skin, very shallow eyes, light cream flesh with purple streaking. They have particularly good flavour, and are best boiled, steamed or hangi.

By sponsoring this potato for a year, you will be helping us to strengthen the genetics of this cultivar, to develop disease resistance and maintain the line, and to make it available to our members and the public in the future ...and for future generations. Thank you!

Your name will be published alongside this potato on our Potato Project thank you list.
