Seed potatoes (First Earlies, Second Earlies and Maincrop), onion sets, shallots and garlic are now available to buy in our stores or online at www.stjohnsgardencentre.co.uk
First and second early seed potatoes will give you “new potatoes” in the summer months, whilst maincrop will provide you with potatoes for the Autumn and enough to store over winter for later use. First earlies will typically be ready for harvesting around June/July, second earlies around July/August and maincrop from August onward (but if storing then they can be harvested in September/October).
Never grown potatoes before? It’s very simple and nothing beats the satisfaction of growing, harvesting and tucking into a bowl of homegrown produce. Not sure which variety to grow? Ask a member of staff in store and they will guide you through choosing the perfect potato for you! You don’t even need to have a vegetable garden – try growing them in a potato bag (also available in store) or a large deep container.
