Potatoes - Vitelotte



This is an ancient potato which is also known as Negresse; French. The skin colour is bluish-purple, almost the same as Salad Blue, but the tuber shape is slightly different. The flesh is dark blue, and the flowers are blue, occurring in smaller clusters than on the salad blue plant.

Pleasant flavoured floury variety; grows well in pots. Yield around 2lb from a 3 gallon container.
