The 'right' ones are the ones you like best. :-D

Ain't that the truth!

Last year was the first time I'd tried growing potatoes (new house with
a small place for vegetable growing) and I'd just watched a TV
programme about heritage varieties so bought a couple of different ones.

The potatoes grew really well and we had a decent crop. But we ended
up giving them away as they were both very floury and we (generally)
prefer waxy ones.

I'll try again this year but make sure I choose the varieties that I
know we'll eat.


The information on this list may help.....

I'm off down to Shoreham on Sunday to help my brother and his wife dig
their new allotment!! Don't think I'll go down again just for the
seeds.......
