A Maris Piper PotatoMakes superb chips (as your local take-away will confirm) and is good too for mashing and baking.

A reliable general purpose choice with good resistance to eelworm, Maris Piper is a maincrop potato variety.

Flesh Colour - Cream. Uses - new, boil, steam, mash, chips, saute, baked 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 in March/April. 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.
