Triploid juzepczukii collected in Bolivia before 1993.
Observations
Clone. Tubers oblong with moderately deep eyes. Blue skin and white flesh with a little blue. Large plants for the species. Abundant flowering and set a few berries with open pollination. Good frost resistance. Tuberization looks short day, but I’m not sure of that. Fairly bitter. Heavy flowering. Berries extremely rare and generally containing 0 to 3 seeds.
Commentary
Best yield of the S. juzepczukii varieties available from the potato genebank.
