Maris Anchor seed potatoes

We planted a couple of rows of potatoes today and they should be ready for Christmas and the summer holidays. I haven't planted this type before or the Red King ones either. It is a matter of taking what seed spuds you can get during lockdown. I'm sure any freshly dug potatoes with lashings of mint will be just fine!

I love what we call "New Potatoes" Small and freshly harvested.

How exciting! I hope you get a good crop.

Lovely!! For the first time, we are actually planting some potatoes in northeast Scotland for Christmas harvest. Apparently, it is quite successful so worth a try!!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Hope all goes well Dianne, or there will be no potatos on the Christmas table:)

I haven't grown potatoes for years. Soil here isn't suitable.

Wishing you a good crop!

Lovely shot and line of potatoes. Your soil is very different to ours as regards to colour and, of course, to chemicals and textures.
