Notes

'Blaze' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Blaze') 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. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything. Bees visit its flowers.

Pairs well with Carrot, Ruby Perfection cabbage, and Long Island Mammoth dill.
