Notes

'Gold Rush' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Gold Rush') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. 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 to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Bees visit its flowers. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Dukat dill, Flashback Mix calendula, and Patio Snacker cucumber.
