Elsie when you want to reply to someone who has answered your question do so under the original question this keeps the 'thread' together.
Charlotte is a 4 on the scale of waxy to floury with 1 being the waxiest and 9 the flouriest. When freshly dug from the soil potatoes need far less cooking time.
The other two varieties you are growing are considered to be floury - good for mashed potatoes.

Then you are either boiling the Chalottes for too long or they are not Charlottes.
