You're way too late! Seed potatoes are planted from mid-March through April for harvesting from now through to early October depending on the variety.

Google have some links on the side of my blogspot and did have one for Suttons about late seed potatoes. I am not sure if it is still there but if you google "Suttons" you would find it.They change the links on blogspots almost daily.
