Potato 'Eva'
Mid-season. Produces attractive tubers that are medium-sized, round-oval in shape with bright white skin and flesh. They are ideal for baking, mashing, and homemade chips. The tubers grow well in heavy or sandy soil and are resistant to early blight, golden nematode, common scab, and hollow heart. Excellent table variety and excellent storability. (90-100 Days)
PLANTING
Plant whole or cut into pieces (2-3) eyes each. Allow pieces to air dry for 24 hours. Place 6” apart in rows 3’ apart. Cover the tuber with soil. Continue to cover as the vines grow by hilling soil, leaves, straw, or compost over the tuber. Leave only small portions of the growing plant exposed to promote more potatoes.
Maine Certified Seed Potatoes
All of our seed is Maine certified or foundation seed that has been field-tested throughout the growing season. Samples from each field have been tested for potato viruses. Two pounds of potatoes will plant approximately 8’ row, 12 sq. feet, or 10 hills.
