    Default Potato Council

    Hi, just a quick question, received the potato growing pack and my potatoes are chitting as I type, I have misplaced the name of the regional variety that I was sent, I received the rocket variety and one other. I am in London can anyone help me out with suggestions of the other variety, I'm sure if i see it, it may trigger some cobweb in my mind, or maybe not x thanks

    I couldn't find anywhere that said what my regional variety were, so they're just labelled "regional"!

    None of these names ring a bell ! but that does not mean any of you are wrong they are red so I am going to go with Rudolph as I googled them and they are red, that seems logical to me after a couple of glasses of red
