A recent variety from Karen Olivier. Potato leaved plants, with excellent production from mid-season. The fruits are smallish beefsteaks, around 200-300g, purple in colour with a rich, intense flavour, with plenty of sweetness. Developed for growing in shorter seasons and cooler summers, and does well outdoors.
Indeterminate, potato leaf
Indeterminate plants are vigorous plants with a vining tendency. They set their fruits at intervals along their stems, and will readily grow side shoots and suckers (shoots from ground level). They need good, strong support, and it is advisable to remove the majority of the side shoots and suckers unless you have plenty of space and fertile soil to allow them to grow to their full potential. See the guide on pruning indeterminates in the resources section of the website for tips.
Sow Jan-April indoors
Height band F
10-15 open-pollinated seeds
