A single hill of Skagit Valley Gold potato variety. Dug just south of the Canadian border in Washington. About two lbs. of spuds..very pretty. The berries on this vine were crossed with pollen from a seedling derived from a full sibling of SVG which has red skin. Looking forward to growing the TPS out someday.
The photo is me holding the vine and the photographer was my older sister Gloria visiting from Arizona. She was a teenager when I started breeding plants in 1954, and knows all too well what a plant nut I have been all these years. I showed her how to dig the plant just by pulling the plant up and then with a quick jerking motion ....the dislodging of all the tubers to the ground
