Grew some sarpo this year did pretty well from my perspective. My toms had gone down with blight but the sarpo produced a good crop. Suggest you go to a "Potato day" if you want to get stock. More expensive than other spuds but held up well in a diabolical year for blight

Cheers HH

That sounds ok.  Can you now buy them elsewhere because last year TM stated that they were the only supplier in this country.

Alan Roman is the only other I know. Not cheap.

Yes a lot of us grown Sarpo and it was good reports all around.

And that concludes the voting from Hungary ...

I'm not paid for spreading the word about them, actually I don't,  I just answered the question  from the point of of view and knowledge I have.

Only teasing - they are the only Hungarian tatty I know  

They are not popular, only one that might be known is Rioja, please don't ask why is that classified as Hungarian. :roll:

Well, I found out now.

I thought I put this link on, just in case there are other sad individuals like myself, who like to browse plant databases. :oops:

What a Fabulous link.  i'll certainly add that to my favourites!

I'm glad you like it. Bit more info, than the seed merchant, innit?

If you link through to the national databases some of them will have pictures too.

Great link Gobs, fully appreciated. By the way, I'm just as nerdy as you when it comes down to it, so you're not alone there!

DD, Have you ever grown Kestrel? They're not noted for blight resistance but they hold up well against slugs. Delicious too, especially as roasties.

For my money, the best way to avoid blight is to spray with Bordeaux mixture. I always spray, and my spuds have NEVER had blight.

Pick up only - but gives you some idea if you can source locally, although I know one or two on here may disagree with their descriptions.

Try Internet Explorer.  It doesn't work in Firefox

It works perfectly in Opera. Great browser too!
