Masquerade - Organic

mottled purple and gold skin, yellow flesh. This whimsical tuber is sure to turn heads. Roast them in olive oil and sprinkle with salt and you’ve got a stunning offering for both the eyes and the taste buds. Longtime Fedco customer Katie Springman said, “They’re wonderful (don’t need anything, not even salt) AND beautiful: the outside is a blast, the inside is brilliant yellow, and the blooms are deep purple. My neighbor saw them and asked what they were so he could add them to his flower garden next year!” Keeps well in the root cellar, but don’t be surprised to see sprouts forming soon after harvest—its Peruvian parentage means it has almost no dormancy period. Literature suggests resistance to hollow heart and bruising—our trials suggest more than that. Amid the crush of early blight and Colorado potato beetles in our field, these beautiful plants remained vigorous among bedraggled neighbors. Holds its own in organic production. PVP.
