Description
- Sweet potatoes are as moreish and delicious as they are versatile. But why fork out an exorbitant amount of cash for store bought sweet potatoes when you can just as easily grow your very own at home?
- Our Best Sweet Potato Plants collection contains three excellent and highly reliable varieties that can easily be grown right here in the UK – our lips are salivating just thinking about it.
- This collection includes:
- 1 ‘Erato Violet’ Sweet Potato Plant
- 1 ‘Erato White’ Sweet Potato Plant
- 1 ‘Orleans’ Sweet Potato Plant
- ‘Erato Violet’ – distinctive purple flesh which keeps its colour even after cooking.
- ‘Erato White’ – makes phenomenal fries, jacket potatoes and mash (and has white flesh rather than the more usual orange).
- ‘Orleans’ – a truly reliable heavy cropper, ‘Orleans’ produces fantastic large tubers that can be kept for months once harvested.
- The plants you’ll receive are already established, removing the need to faff about with growing your sweet potato plant from slips (cuttings taken from mature sweet potatoes).
- Just plant your sweet potato plants in a greenhouse, polytunnel or sunny, sheltered spot, outdoors, and prepare to get your fix of starchy sweetness from late summer throughout the autumn!
