These gorgeous round tubers are perfect for baking or mashing with just a little salt and pepper to savor their creamy, sweet, gourmet flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eViking Purple Potato is an excellent storage variety, allowing you to enjoy more of your crop over a longer period. It produces mostly 3½ to 4-inch round tubers, but will occasionally wow you with a few whoppers. Compact plants are great for growing more potatoes in less space, and offer excellent resistance to scab and tolerance of heat and drought. Each 2-pound bag will sow 20 to 25 feet of row and yield more than 25 pounds of potatoes. They're simply the best way to grow potatoes.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eLike all potatoes, Viking Purple Potato fares best in sandy, enriched soil, but if you have heavy or clay soil, just use a raised bed or plant the tubers more shallowly, mulching them well with straw.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eSeed Potato Definition\u003c\/u\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A tuber that has several eyes whose purpose is to be planted.\u003cbr\u003e Genetically identical to the parent potato.\u003cbr\u003e A faster way to grow potatoes vs seed.\u003cbr\u003e Guaranteed virus free and disease free stock.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e2-pound bag of tubers to plant 20 to 25 feet of row\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"parkseed","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42354568200251,"sku":"33716","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/8580\/4859\/files\/Product_MediaImage_33716_1.jpg?v=1753891778","url":"https:\/\/www.parkseed.mom\/products\/viking-purple-potato-2-pound-bag-33716","provider":"Park Seed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
