  • Potato Search - Harlequin

    I love the salad potato 'Harlequin', but I'm struggling to find a supplier of them for next season I've previously got them from Thompson & Morgan, but they aren't listing them so far, and despite checking every seed potato supplier I can think of, I can't find them anywhere else either. A Google search only brings up the main commercial supplier, whom I will contact as a last resort.
    Has anybody seen them listed anywhere for next season? Or, if anyone goes to a potato day and spots them, please will you get me a handful and I'll reimburse all costs.
    I'd be sad to do without them as they are a cracking spud, and have no natural 'successor' that I can see.

    The company that used to grow them has gone bust but a small amount has been grown in Scotland this year as a pre-basic stock so that it can be multiplyed for seed production in 2011. If there is any seed available this year then I have first dibs on it but as of yet I have had no more news about it.

      Oh no, that's bad news, I was very happy with the Harlequin this year, here's hoping you get some tattieman.

      So laugh insanely, love truly and forgive quickly!

        Aah, that explains it then Tattieman. Thanks for that - at least I know I can look forward to it coming back
        I might have Nicola as an alternative for next year then, if no Harlequin are available - I was quite impressed with 'her' this year although the flavour and yield weren't quite as good

            Thanks jacob

            I checked the site and it says on the product page "Availability not confirmed - stock set at zero." So they must be waiting to hear about stock too.
