As my potatoes have always fallen prey to blight by early July, this
year I tried the new potato varieties Sarpo Mira and Sarpo Axona which
were developed for blight resistance. I've been enormously impressed.
The plants have been large and vigorous and no signs of blight yet. For
the first time ever, I'm digging up large tubers some weighing about 12
ozs. Hardly any slug damage either.

I wondered whether anyone else had tried these varieties and how they
had had turned out.

How have they turned out flavour-wise?
