Description

Early, firm-cooking variety, successor to Linda. Good shelf life. Fine, creamy-buttery and intense flavor. Finely netted, yellow skin with flat to very flat eyes, yellow flesh. Fall rather smaller with a diameter of 35-55 mm. However, in rare cases, slight discoloration may occur during cooking. Robust and resistant to nematodes.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Pre-germination is recommended. Germination from 10°C. Mound at a growth height of 15-20 cm, this prevents greening of the tubers. Do not make the ridge too pointed, so that the plants can still absorb the water well. It is important to provide a good and regular supply of water. Refrain from late nitrogen fertilization, as this delays tuber formation.
