Notes

'New England Pie' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'New England Pie') is a vegetable for the food garden and containers. 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. It is not a favorite of rabbits, though hungry rabbits will eat almost anything. It takes about 105 days to reach maturity.

Pairs well with Long Island Mammoth dill, Flashback Mix calendula, and Mexican Sour Gherkin cucumber.
