Extra Early Vermont Potatoes
Similar in color, form, and general appearance to the Early Rose. It is, however, much more hardy, a better keeper, more productive, of better quality, and from a week to ten days earlier, and is rapidly taking the place of that popular variety. In many places where the Early Rose has failed to produce a crop, this variety has given the most satisfactory returns. A first class certificate was awarded to this variety in 1873, by the Royal Horticultural Society of London.
