POTATOES, RHUBARB & RUTABAGA POTATO CULTURE Magic Molly Kennebec
We have sought out several of the best potato varieties for your gar- den. They are simple to grow and the taste is enhanced by knowing you've grown your own. Our potato eyes are cut from certified seed potatoes, which assures that they will be high yielding and top quality. We supply large seed pieces (eyes) that will produce vigorous plants. They are carefully packed and guaranteed to reach you in good con- dition. These eyes will be ready to plant when you receive them. Full planting instructions will be included with your order. For best results, use Colorado Potato Beetle Beater (listed on opposite page), to deter pests and keep your potatoes healthy.

Our packages contain 25 eyes, which will plant a 25' row. Shipments begin early April, depending on your region and weather conditions. We also offer some varieties with whole potatoes. These certified po- tatoes should be cut about a week before planting and each piece should have two eyes or you can simply plant the potato whole. Com- plete instructions are provided with each shipment
