Pink Fir Apple
Pink Fir Apple seed potatoes are a long and knobbly shaped heritage potato variety maintained by JBA. Due to their unique shape, Pink Fir Apple tubers are best eaten either with their skins on or served as delicious, individual chunky chips. Even when they have been stored, these seed potatoes retain a new potato taste well into the New Year.
Maincrop seed potatoes mature in 125-140 days and, if planted in late April, can be harvested by mid August.Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
SOIL PREPARATION:
Choose a place in the garden which has not been used to grow garlic, onions, shallots or leeks for at least two years. The soil should be open, well drained and not have been manured for at least one year.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Each potato should be 35cm from the next, with rows spaced 70cm apart. Always make sure the eyes are facing upwards. Drills should be 15cm deep.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Water well in dry spells.
HARVESTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Harvest June-July. Dig up mature potatoes and store them in a cool, dry and dark location. Potatoes can be stored for several months. Tip: when harvesting, remove all foliage and small potatoes from the soil and discard, to avoid diseases on next year’s crop.
Plant as soon as possible after purchase. Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place until planting. Keep free from frost.
Grown from cultivated stock.
