Pink Fir Apple is a heritage variety that is maintained by Jamieson Brothers. The tubers are long and knobbly and are best eaten in their skins on or served as individual chunky chips. Even when they have been stored they retain a new potato taste well into the new year. Winner of the RHS award of garden merit.

A top tip for growing Pink Fir Apple or any other late maincrop is to buy these potatoes early in the year and put them into some small pots with some good general purpose compost. This will allow the late maincrops to get off to a flying start and then you can simply transplant them outside later on.
