French Fingerling

dark rose-red skin, yellow flesh with pink lines This fine fingerling, a spud of lore and song, is more than just a fancy fad. French Fingerlings are sweet little potatoes that you want to pick on the early side to fully revel in their tenderness, before they embark on their more awkward and bulky phase and develop growth cracks.

The skin, though it scuffs easily in the packing shed, is worth the extra care, as it stays smooth to the touch, tender and awful pretty. The yellow flesh features a stunning pinkish webbing.

Tall spreading plants wide-set tubers. Hill and mulch well! In our trials, showed impressive resistance to potato beetles, leaf hopper and scab.
