Product Description

Cara potato seeds are a great favourite with our allotmenteer customers. Renowned for its heavy yields, Cara is one of our best-selling maincrop varieties due to its impressive resilience. This all-round disease-resistant potato boasts strong resistance to eelworm, virus, and blight. It's also very drought-tolerant, making Cara the perfect choice for growing in tough conditions.

Our popular Cara seed potatoes produce smooth, round tubers with white skin and distinctive shallow red eyes. Cara's versatility shines in the kitchen thanks to its mild flavour and soft, moist flesh. These waxy seed potatoes excel in boiling and baking, offering a delightful taste and texture that complements a wide range of dishes. They're also a great choice for long storage.

Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a novice, this tried-and-tested variety promises a satisfying growing experience and a bountiful harvest of excellent general-purpose potatoes. As with most maincrop seed potatoes, chitting is not necessary. Plant outdoors from April to May and your potatoes will be ready to harvest from August through to October.
