Rooster Potatoes are oval, with red skin and pale yellow flesh.
The plant bears high yields.
These are floury potatoes, but waxy enough to be used as a boiling potato if you don’t overcook them.
History Notes
Rooster Potatoes were developed at the Oak Park Research Centre, Carlow, Ireland by the Irish Ministry of Agriculture from a cross between Pentland Ivory potatoes and a potato referred to as “OP 2532/64.” Introduced 1993.
