£2.99 per 3Kg bag or 2 for £5.50

Pink Fir Apple x 2
Nicola x 1

We've taken on a second plot recently so that's most of that space sorted  ;D

All my seed potatoes have arrived now  ;D. 

Witchill, Kestrel, Nadine and Blue Belle are from JBA, arriving in good condition a couple of weeks ago

Sarpo Kifli, T&M, delivered, look good

Tolluco, from DT Brown

Black Bog, Lumper and Up To Date, 5 of each from ISSA.  Although colour is quite different, Black Bog and Lumper seem quite similar in shape, with deep eyes, kinda lumpy!  ;D
