Notes
'Austrian Crescent' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Austrian Crescent') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Bees visit the blooms. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Fern Leaf dill, Black Magic kale, and Alpha calendula.
