Notes
'Mashed Potatoes' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Mashed Potatoes') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The bush plants attract bees, and the crop is ready to harvest in about 90 days.
Pairs well with Black Magic kale, Cilantro, and Dill.
