Russet Burbank - Organic

russet skin, white flesh Known to most as the Idaho Potato, the dry mealy texture makes it a trusty old favorite. A great baking or mashing potato; you’ll have the whole winter and spring to experiment in the kitchen.

Its reliably high yields mature late in the season, and the plants show resistance to scab, black leg and fusarium.

This dependable standard requires heavy feeding and regular moisture for exceptional performance. ②

For orders placed by February 21, 2025, this item will ship on our regular shipping schedule, starting in late March with the warmest states and finishing by early May. Orders placed after February 21, 2025 will be shipped later, and in the order in which they were received. We cannot ship this item any earlier; we regret that we cannot honor any requests to do so.
