Overview

Vivaldi is a second early potato bred by HZPC in the Netherlands. Its oval tubers have yellow skin and pale yellow flesh. It is field immune to potato wart and shows high resistance to viruses A and Y. The harvest window is long, so gardeners can lift it over an extended period rather than all at once.
