The most delicious varieties of potatoes

Of course, taste is a subjective concept.

A particular variety of potato may be very popular with one gourmet, but not become a favorite with another.

And yet there are standard varieties of garden crops that are highly valued by both specialists and ordinary gardeners.

First of all, we are talking about the variety "Adretta" . This potato is distinguished by a very bright taste and crumbliness.

However, this variety also has its drawbacks: vulnerability to diseases and not very good shelf life.

It is also worth paying attention to the Bellarosa variety: the tubers are large, tasty and suitable for long-term storage.

There was also a downside. We are talking about severe damage to potatoes during digging.

A good option is also the Red Scarlet variety. The disadvantage is its susceptibility to diseases such as scab and late blight.
