long, and handsome ; an exceedingly good cropper, floury, and of most excellent flavour when cooked. 
This variety should be in every collection. Price, 7 lb. 3s., 14 lb. 5s., 56 lb. 18s.

raised, being a seedling from Edgeote Purple 
and Peerless Rose. The tubers are flat Kidney 
shape, eyes shallow, the skin being of a 
bright glossy red. The flesh is of excellent 
quality when cooked. It is a good cropper

variety of the Red Skin Flourball type, but a 
later keeper. This has been selected from 
many others for its good cropping and late 
keeping qualities. The tubers, when cooked,

kind of Potato is preferred by many to the 
very mealy kinds.
