Saxon Potatoes are oval, with light-buff skin and pale yellow flesh.
These are waxy potatoes. Though they are marketed as all-purpose for direct to consumer sales, their flesh stays very firm after cooking.
The plant delivers heavy yields.
Some feel that the potato’s taste and texture are mediocre.
