Bonnie Seed Potatoes
These even-sized Bonnie potato tubers are a must for any serious show bench exhibitor. They have bright skins with a red splash around shallow eyes.
Good dormancy and disease resistance. Bonnie is a second Early variety. Flesh Colour - Cream. Uses - boil, steam, mash and chips.
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.
