Notes

'Rouge Vif D'Etampes' potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Rouge Vif D'Etampes') 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 usually look elsewhere for a meal. Bees visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Fern Leaf dill, Santo cilantro, and Sugar Cube melon.
