Purple Majesty Seed Potatoes
Purple Majesty is a superb potato with the taste and texture of an ordinary variety, but boasting vivid purple flesh which retains its colour during cooking.
High in anthocyanin antioxidants, it's better for you too. Ideal for mashing, baking, roasting and microwaving, as well as making spectacular chips and crisps!
Purple Majesty is a maincrop variety. Flesh Colour - Purple. Uses - boil, steam, mash and roast.
Immediately upon arrival unpack your seed potatoes and keep them in trays in a light, airy, frost free place to sprout prior to planting. Planting - depth 10cm (4"); spacing in row - 30-40cm (12-16"); width between rows - 70-75cm (28-30").
Soil should be well-worked and rich in humus (farm-yard manure or garden compost). Earth up two to three times as the top grows, to avoid green tubers. Feed with a balanced fertiliser and always keep your potatoes watered well during dry periods to ensure a good crop.
NB: Quantities are approximate and based on 10 tubers per kilogram.
