Description

For the perfect pub chips
High yielding
Home-grown scented spuds

Choose potato Maris Piper for your own vegetable patch for the sheer scent of freshly dug potatoes from September. This is a much-loved variety so timely for warming mash potato, gourmet- pub chip or potato wedges as the summer turns to autumn and the temperatures start to get colder.

Maris Piper are truly delicious as roast potatoes. The skins crisp up perfectly and leave a soft fluffy centre on account of the water content. Yes, you can get this variety at the supermarket in plastic wrap, but they are without the home-grown scent and essence of potatoes in your own garden which makes them truly appealing. No need to chit before planting, just keep the seed potatoes cool and dry until March when it’s time to plant.

Storing well, take advantage of an on-going supply of home-grown Maris Pipers over the winter to keep you well-stocked for tasty side-dishes. We recommend you store in a dry location, preferably in an open crate.

All our seed potatoes are graded to a size 35mm x 35mm to 55mm x 55mm. This means that the smallest seed potatoes in the sample will not fall through an 35mm square. This does mean there will be various sizes within the pack. More modern varieties are more equal in size but as we want to offer the more unusual and Heritage varieties, these are more variable but we will always supply the weight stated. Any harvest will depend on individual growing conditions but generally smaller potatoes will produce smaller crops and larger potatoes will produce larger crops. But for example 1kg of seed potatoes will produce the same overall harvest whether the seed potatoes are small or large.
