Perhaps the most striking of the Taewa (Maori Potatoes), Kowiniwini is a waxy potato. The medium deep-set eyes are surrounded by bright yellow while the basic colour of the tubers is a deep purplish-red. The flesh of the tubers is creamy-white and they tend to disintegrate when boiled.
Also Known As: Peruperu, Karuparera, Old Zebra
Frank van Steensel talks about heritage Potatoes and the Kowiniwini.

Anything I can get that is unusual for our area in terms of a New Zealand heirloom would be great to use in breeding heirloom to heirloom. Let me know if you can get a small tuber of Kowiniwini or one of the others to me would be greatly appreciated.
