Beauregard won hands-down for me over Evangeline, Georgia Jet, Porto Rico, Sharp, Stevenson and Vardamon here in sw PA, where we've worked hard to improve our basic shale clay soil. It produced the most and largest tubers and was the only one that didn't get some kind of pox marks all over the skin which just got worse in storage. Since this is the only one available at the local Agway, that works out fine for me just in case I have trouble getting slips to grow in the spring. Don't give up before at least giving this one a try.
