@bower we had mashed purple majesty potatoes last night. Purple majesty might be in the must grow category for us, they are really good eating, they have a pleasing earthiness, this rich taste to them and a great texture. I probably won’t grow Norland again as I think Pontiac tastes better, but dark red Norland isn’t really a bad potato, but maybe not in the top tier for flavor for the red skin ones, just my opinion.

German Butterball is one that I want to try some day. Most well known online potato seed vendors don’t start to ship seed potatoes for spring until it’s far too late to plant here. Sort of a back burner issue.

There are so many varieties out these days I’m only doing 10 Yukon golds since my daughter has her first garden this year
