German Butterball Potatoes - 6 Seed Potatoes

Have you ever tasted homegrown potatoes? Some say there is no comparison to store-bought potatoes. Homegrown potatoes are fresher, more flavorful, and healthier for you. A small number of seed potatoes will yield a few buckets of potatoes ready to eat and enjoy and can even be stored throughout the winter months. German Butterball potatoes are perfect for potato salads.

  • Light: Full sun
  • Planting instructions: To maximize your crop, keep potatoes well watered throughout the summer, but especially during the period when they are in flower and immediately thereafter. Water early in the day, this allows foliage to dry completely before the evening.
  • Harvest: Early summer to fall
  • Additional Notes: Potatoes must have well-draining, moisture-retentive, fertile soil that is high in organic matter and has a pH between 5.0 and 6.0. Do not use lime soil. The soil should be slightly acidic. To prevent disease problems, do not plant potatoes in the same bed as tomatoes. Potatoes should be rotated on a 3-year program. This means you need 3 suitable sites if you want to grow potatoes every year. Find additional care instructions here!

"Bath's warranty on trees is for real and ended up being a great deal for us. Recently back in and guidance was calming, helpful, and kind concerning recent projects."

"Every time I walk into Bath I’m greeted by the kindest and most helpful people! Additionally they have a fantastic selection of everything you can think of! (I’ve even bought clothing and jewelry here! It’s much more than just a nursery). Today I had the good fortune of being greeted and helped by Wyatt. I went in with absolutely no idea what to do with my garden spaces…they’re huge and overwhelming. I showed Wyatt photos of my spaces and jokingly asked Wyatt if he could just design my spaces for me….and he replied “yes!”….he took me around, asked what I liked, told me how to mix color, grasses and heights, etc…he was a wealth of info and help! I’m so grateful and I love how it all turned out! Thank you, Bath, for having great products, and a special BIG shoutout to Wyatt! You are awesome!!! (Also, Wyatt should get a bonus because I walked out with 22 perennials😂)."
