An orange fleshed variety with red to orange skin. Grows as a vigorous vine with mid-green, lobed leaves and pink flowers. The tubers are large, resistant to cracking and store well. The young leaves can be cooked and eaten as a spinach substitute. The flesh is firm and sweet, suitable for baking, mashing, steaming or boiling.
Each tuber will produce multiple slips (shoots). Each slip has the potential to grow into a mature plant that can produce 3-4 large tubers each.
This is a first generation sweet potato, grown for propagation with a reduced risk of disease.
