7 Sweet Potato Varieties
Orange Covington - Outstanding taste and production, probably the best orange Vardaman - tastes good, roots are on the skinny side. Hernandez - tastes good, long season, slow slip production Beauregard - Early, Nice taste and texture, some roots are malformed Copper Jewel - Some big early roots, taste is good Baker - Great taste, does not grow well in my soil, plenty of tubers that grew deep and didn't size up Topaz - Excellent sweet potato. great taste and texture My rating 1 Covington 2 Topaz 3 Beauregard 4 Copper Jewel 5 Hernandez 6 Baker 7 Vardaman Dropping Hernandez, Baker and Vardaman Adding Bayou Belle and Bradshaw The big surprise were the white ones. I had no idea the white sweets were so complex and interesting. I use to think people were nuts when they said they preferred the white ones but not anymore. White sweet potato review later |
