This weekend was busy, but I did manage to get the potatoes planted on Sunday, April 22. That's 11 days later than last year.
I planted two fingerling varieties: Rose Finn Apple and French Fingerling. Both were purchased from Seed Savers. Because of the great potato confusion of 2006, I've labeled them well - both on my garden plan and with plant labels in the garden. However, I did contradict myself. When I posted on my mistake, I said I wouldn't grow Rose Finn Apple again this year. However, because I'm not sure which was the more prolific variety, I'm growing both varieties again so that I can make a definitive and final judgment this year.
And now, for the most boring picture on a blog - ever - I give you my potato planting.
Wait - did you see my photo of the rose trench?? I mean, it didn't even have anything IN it!!
