Notes
'Pinto Gold' potatoes (Solanum tuberosum 'Pinto Gold') 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. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees visit the red, yellow, and gold flowers.
Pairs well with Long Island Mammoth dill, Santo cilantro, and Mexican Sour Gherkin cucumber.
