potato websites?
As very much a newcomer, I am bewildered by the range of potatoes
available in the catalogues (what and when, to crop when etc) at the risk of repeating other posts, could sks direct me to a website which would help me plan when ordering my potatoes. Many thanks LW PS - new allotment looking very much smarter, with loads to do, but loving every minute! |

I'll definitely download that. BTW, do you find that the weather widget stopped working for a while - seems okay now, though.

Probably the best UK site is the one run by WCF-Phoenix which supplies most of the garden centres and DIY Chains with their prepacked seed potatoes http://www.wcf-phoenix.co.uk/potatopicker/search.asp The definitive European site is http://www.europotato.org/help_search.php this is comprehensive but purely text. It can be useful try the INdexes tab and then Characters (they mean characteristics) A French site with many varieties that are available in Enland http://www.plantdepommedeterre.org/eng/mainvar.asp is a. in English and b. has pictures and ives growing advice and cooking uses. The equivalent Dutch site is http://www.aardappelpagina.nl/uk/Abo...iety_catalogue All you need to know about 17 modern Scottish varieties is at http://www.caithnesspotatoes.com/cai... ang=eng&id=18 and finally try this one from the USA http://www.clarksd.com/potato/wrestling.htm |
