Huckleberry Gold

seed potatoes
Solanum tuberosum
Purple skin, yellow flesh. This healthful midseason purple potato has a surprisingly low glycemic index and is packed with antioxidants, vitamin C and carotene. If health food isn’t your thing, go ahead and slather on the butter. Attractive glossy dark purple slightly flattened round tubers have shallow eyes and creamy dry yellow flesh. Stores well. Moderately heavy yields.

Drought tolerant and resistant to scab and PVX.

In the 1993 Western, Tombstone, Doc Holiday’s famous line, “I’m your Huckleberry”, was a turn of phrase popular in the mid to late 19th century showing up in print publications, and catalogs of the day. It meant, “I’m the one you’re looking for.”

Well, folks, here’s your Huckleberry!
