Name Of Potato ?

[Chipchopper]

Anyone know the name of the potato variety on last night's gardeners world.
Not the red one, the other one.
They were grown in pots, if that helps.
I've forgotten.

Can you watch again on the catch-up site ?

[Togo]

Sorry Chef ... just re-read the question.

[hellywelly4]

Charlotte?

[Mamyalynne]

They were Pink Fir Apple.

[jazzyjen]

Sarpo Mira was mentioned. Main crop to be planted late April and harvested Aug/sept.

Sarpo Mira are good if you often get blight on your plot, they are blight resistant.

[barry1010]

They are a red potato, Chip wants the name of the white.

[Togo]

The first spud shown that had been pot grown was Pink Fir Apple a knobbly shaped spud that is not red despite the Pink reference. Needed a translator for that clever old chap.

[Mamyalynne]

He was great wasn't he?

[Chipchopper]

Thanx all,
Watched the repeat, and it looks like "pink fir apple"

[barry1010]

Mamya was right - again :D

[Mamyalynne]

Glad we got there :-)
