The most reliable sweet potato for UK growing. Orange flesh, good yields. Needs a warm, long season.
Flavour
Sweet and earthy with a creamy texture when cooked. The rich orange flesh offers a naturally sugary taste that caramelises beautifully over fire.
In the kitchen
Ideal for roasting whole on embers or slicing thick for grilling. Its sweetness intensifies with slow cooking, making it perfect for BBQ sides or smoky mash.
Growing
Requires a warm, long growing season and well-drained, fertile soil. Best started indoors in April or May to ensure full maturity by autumn.
