potato 'Sarpo Mira'

A high-yielding, red-skinned late maincrop variety that produces a good amount of weed-smothering foliage, but it is the potatoes natural resistance to blight that makes it stand out from the crowd. It is a good all rounder in the kitchen and has a floury texture that is great for baking, roasting and making chips. It also has good crop yields and stores well so the good harvest potential will mean you do not have to eat them all at once. Also shows good resistance to Potato blackleg, slugs and some potato viruses.
