I'm very much interested in growing purple fleshed SP as well. In Japan they are commonly called 'Murasaki-imo' and widely used for sweet products - Murasaki-imo icecream is heavenly! :PI looked into importing tubers from Japan and contacted Defra but it was not possible at all. Tubers seem to be one of the most strictly controlled.Have a look at this on-line guide(PDF file) from defra. http://www.soton.ac.uk/international/welcome/ifindoubt.pdfYou should contact defra if you need to know anything that isn't mentioned there about importing plants and seeds. They are generally very helpful. Please keep us posted how you get on. :)
If you are doing an import order put me down for some as well! If they are not going to ship other than in bulk i'll help share the cost!!! :)
Irradiation will surely kill the potatoes.
Rob,everyone in holland understands afrikaans,it is 17 century dutch.Ik praat nu 20 century modern nederlands tegen jouw,dat verschilt(verskil) niet(nie) zo veel.Here in holland there is a serie started on the tele about the family vanderstell who came to sud-afrika and started a wine imperium called stellenbosch.

"Tier Aserblief Leafy"... phonetic Afrikans from visitors and colleagues... no idea how it is really spelt.. "Buy a dankey"... ;D
