Vigorous dwarf potato leaf plants produce a heavy yield of oblate, smooth red fruit, 6-16 oz. Superb, intense, complex flavor – one of the very best flavored of all of the new Dwarf varieties. (12 seeds / packet)

Seed source:

1. Bill Minkey of Darien, Wisconsin (WI MI B) 15
2. Marla McClaren, California 15

Year grown: 2014*, 2015, 2016

Location: Zone 7b, PNW, Anmore, BC, Canada (760 ft above sea level)

75 days. The vigorous dwarf potato leaf plants produce a heavy yield of medium to medium large sized (6-16 ounces) oblate, smooth red fruit, possessing a superb, intense, complex flavor – one of the very best flavored of all of the new Dwarf varieties. Due to the challenge of stabilizing the dominant color (red), don’t be surprised if you find an occasional plant producing yellow or orange fruit; be sure to try them, because they will likely be just as delicious.
