Maris Piper do very well in containers, although the foliage does tend to get a bit out of hand. Lovely spuds though!

If you like a floury tattie! Which we don't! That is the challenge... floury/waxy - which do you prefer, mashed tatties (floury) or boiled topped with butter (waxy)

go onto T&M or similar seed website and you will find a list of seed potatoes and suitable growing mediums.
