Last year I grew this variety, a red variation of Charlotte, and very nice they were too, BUT I found out too late that they are prone to blight and for the first time in my 45 years of vegetable growing it struck.  Lesson learned.

Hi  How was the flavour of these potatoes? Are they waxy? They sound great, am tempted to try a few as I love Charlottes.

They are waxy like Charlotte but pink and the potato itself can have pink areas too.  Fortunately I noticed the blight on the leaves at an early stage so I was able to whip the tops off and dispose of them before they affected the tubers.  I don't know where you can buy them in England because we bought them in France - legal for private use.  They are well worth a try so long as you are vigilant because the flavour is excellent.
