Final order deadline for
potatoes and sets:
late spring, when we run out of stock
Ginger and turmeric will be shipped starting in late February. Onion plants and sweet potato slips are drop-shipped directly from our growers according to your planting zone/region unless you indicate otherwise at checkout. Otherwise, we begin shipping Potatoes, Onions and Exotics orders in late March, finishing by early May. We cannot ship before that; we regret that we cannot honor any requests to do so.
yellow skin, light yellow fleshA late-season yellow that produces high yields of large tubers. Alice harvested one that weighed in at almost 18 ounces, and the second largest tuber from the same plant weighed 14 ounces! Has produced consistently high yields across diverse growing regions and conditions. Excellent storage potential. Holds its shape well boiled, making it a great choice for soups and stews, but also great fried. Lehigh new potatoes mash up creamy, dense and delectable.
Released jointly in 2007 by Cornell, Penn State and UMaine and named after Lehigh County in Pennsylvania, where the field trials were conducted. “Lehigh” is derived from the Lenape term Lechauweki or Lechauwekink, meaning “where there are forks” (e.g. in Lehigh River).
Resistant to blackspot bruise and scab. Indigenous Royalties.②
