Main Crop, organic, waxy
New variety, a recommended alternative to long standing favourite, Desiree. Sunset produces long oval tubers with deep red skin and creamy flesh. Really high yields. Perfect for mashing, boiling and roasting. *DESIREE ALTERNATIVE*
Andrew Skea, from Skea Organics, says:
“We think Sunset is a bit more reliable that Desiree. We grew organic Desiree for many years but were plagued with Common Scab and it was not really good enough for blight resistance.Sunset is a bit earlier and seems to be less problematic. It also seems to be ok for taste and texture.”
