This colorful, specialty variety of deep purple potatoes are ready to harvest in about 110 to 120 days. They grow attractive, deep green foliage with lovely white flowers. Their violet skin and small rounded growth are the distinctive features of this Potato.
Potato plants are a great addition to early raised beds or large containers. Potatoes are a cool-season crop that grow best in early Spring and late Fall when the days are warm and the nights are cool. The tops of Potatoes cannot withstand frost. The edible part of the plant is an underground stem called a tuber. Potatoes are a great source of carbohydrates and provide good amounts of vitamins and minerals.
Plant Potatoes roughly 4 inches deep and cover with well-draining, loose soil. They require full sun for best results. Potatoes benefit from compost along with fertilizer rich in potassium and phosphorus. Potatoes are ready to harvest when the skin becomes firm, but one can harvest small “new” potatoes early if desired.
