PI 225710 should be round, small, with yellowish flesh. I got it as a phureja but they re-classified it as a andegenum species. Of course, it is a seedling from the original line. Mule Skinner Blues and Blue Rockies should be oval and larger than the 225710.

When I plant potatoes I almost always alternate colors just to make sure I don't make similar mistakes in labeling.

The plot from 2009 should have feral tubers of Mule Skinner Blues and Blue Rockies in situ. I will check out this raised bed area shortly. Even as potatoes are harvested each year....deep growing tubers are likely to emerge again with vigorous plants once again.
