A popular choice for its buttery flavour.
High in vitamins and minerals, and a good source of energy-producing carbohydrates, potatoes are the world's leading vegetable crop for a reason. An early producer, Yukon Gold delivers a rich, delicious flavour and smooth, yellow flesh that is perfect for buttery mashed potatoes or fluffy baked potatoes. Named after the Yukon River, it is a fantastic choice for cooler regions, and is quite easy to grow. 60–80 days to maturity.
