Poundland Potatoes and Onions


Each packet contains an average of 8 potatoes.

- Pentland Javelin it's a popular first early potato.  It has white skin and white flesh, high yielding but tendency to bulk late.  Equally good if grown as a main crop, Javelin is one of the most disease resistant potato varieties.

- King Edward are commonly available across major retailers, are versatile potatoes that taste great boiled, baked, mashed or roasted.  It has a white skin with a pinkish tinge and a creamy floury flesh.


Each packet contains an average of 80 sets.

- Stuttgarter onions are a favourite which can be planted earlier than normal varieties.   Stuttgarter are a sweet, smooth and very mild tasting onion and they are an excellent variety for storage.

- Setton is a classic spring planting variety that produces high yields of great tasking onions.  

- Red Baron is an excellent traditional onion and one of the longest storing onions we know.  It is a very attractive red skinned variety with pink and white flesh.  

- Golden Gourmet shallots are easy to grow and store well.  This variety has good resistance to bolting and it may be planted out from January.
