Title: potato varieties
Post by: Grubbypaws on June 12, 2019, 12:53

Last year someone on the forum gave a link to a great database of information about all potato varies. I have searched but cannot find it. If anyone can remember the link that would be great. Thank you

I don't think so. I remember it having pictures of the flowers as well as details about the potatoes. The nearest I have come so far is https://www.gardenfocused.co.uk/vegetable/potatoes/variety-setanta.php but this is not what was posted last year.

Some varieties have pics and some don't  have a look at the info page for Desiree for example Varieties (http://varieties.ahdb.org.uk/varieties/view/Desiree)
I think each variety does have the Table showing characteristics and the one for Resistance to pests and diseases, though, where known.
