Notes
'Blackberry' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Blackberry') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. 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. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees visit its flowers.
Pairs well with Bouquet dill, Alpha calendula, and Santo cilantro.
