Mammoth Pearl Potatoes
This new and wonderful early variety was selected from over 2,500 seedlings. It will produce a good crop in spite of the bugs, is free from rot, and never hollow. Skin and flesh pure, pearly white. Cooks like a snow ball. Eyes few, and even with the surface. Shape oblong-round. Ripens in August, and is immensely productive, yielding double most sorts. Vines short and thick, standing upright like a tree.
