Notes
'Alaska Bloom' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Alaska Bloom') is a vegetable for the food garden, grown for boiling, baking, scalloped dishes, and hash browns. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average moisture. Loose soil and hilling up the plants both increase yield, and the round tubers are ready in 90 to 105 days.
Pairs well with Hungarian Wax Hot Pepper, Cucumber, and Kent Beauty oregano.
