Red Duke of York Seed Potatoes
Red Duke of York is a heritage variety and one of the few red skinned earlies. Has a fine flavour at first digging and can get quite large as it matures when it bakes and chips well.
First Early variety. RHS Award of Garden Merit winner.
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.
