Potato : Minituber : Aura

Eye catching long yellow firm tubers with name to match. For salad and boiling, superb flavour.

Clinically produced minitubers with maximum plant health protection. 100% Free of all potato pathogens.

Minituber production commences with laboratory in-vitro micropropagation of the initial microplants grown under stringent quality assurance controls. Nodal cuttings are taken from the microplants rooted in sterile nutrient jelly, are moved to a screened compost based or hydroponic growing facility.

This new technology provides secure long term storage of heritage varieties and allowing rapid introduction of varieties, old and new. This is important at a time when many field grown seed varieties worldwide are under increasing pest and disease pressures.

Potato : Minituber : Vitelotte

Vitelotte (aka Negresse and Truffe de Chine) is our own registered clone of this old French variety, date unknown but probably early 1800s from Peru or Bolivia. An earlier maturing potato and with slightly larger tubers than Congo (which was phenomenally popular as a minituber last season).

Potato Vitelotte has the same rich inky purple-black skin and flesh of Congo, rich in anthocyanin, and similarly with all coloured fleshed varieties they retain their colour most prominently if steamed in minimal water and not boiled. Makes visually stunning mash, chips, crisps, jackets and roasties.
