This exceptional variety of sweet potato has it all; high, uniform yields, disease resistance, long storage and most importantly great taste. The disease resistant plants produce top quality, uniform, medium-sized tubers with rose-colored skin. The rich, sweet, orange flesh is moist and creamy with incredible flavor perfect for mashing, baking and roasting. Quickly becoming a perferred variety. The high yields of sweet potatoes have improved shelf-life, so they can be enjoyed for months. An excellent choice for northern gardeners.
