German Butterball is the tastiest potato I have found so far. My picky eater kids even ate the skins! So the only seed potatoes I bought this year were German Butterball.

I was actually kind of trying to find a russet type potato to plant,but may have to wait another season,as I only have so many containers. Thanks for the suggestion of German Butterball.Nice to know that these are flavorful. Trop

Our local Rural King has Yukon Golds and Red potatoes at .39/lb for seed potatoes. I ordered Rose Finn Apple, Russian Banana and Magic Molly from The Maine Potato Lady. I like fingerlings, on a good year you plant 1# and get 10# at harvest. Gran Teton Organics is another good place to get a lot of varieties. |
