X 10 POTATO DESIREE

There's a particular kind of pride that comes from lifting your own potatoes out of the ground — and Desiree makes that moment easy to fall in love with. This is the reliable red you can hand to a first-time grower with total confidence: drought-tolerant, disease-resistant, and forgiving of an imperfect summer. Underneath that rosy skin is a creamy, floury flesh that roasts golden, mashes silky-smooth, and turns an ordinary Sunday dinner into something worth the wait. Plant in March, and by autumn you'll be pulling up the kind of potatoes that make you want to do this every single year.
