Default Magic Molly

I grew Magic Molly last year but since I got only 3 potatoes from one plant I saved them for seed for year. This is all the info I found for this variety from one of Tom's posts here at Tomatoville.

"Magic Molly is from Campbell's collection at Palmer, Alaska. It is likely a chance hybrid between Red Beauty and Purple Peruvian. The first for sure. Magic Molly, named for Campbell's daughter, is an intense purple/blue fleshed potato "


The plant is upright, compact, early ~90days, has white flowers, potatoes are aprox 3in oblong, blue skin with blue flesh, stores well but sprouts before 5 months. Yield was low again lower than 1 pound per tuber planted. Taste tests underway.
