Purple Majesty Seed Potatoes are a visually stunning variety with deep purple skin and vibrant purple flesh. Known for their rich concentration of anthocyanins—nearly twice the amount found in any other produce item—they offer nutritional benefits and striking appeal at an affordable cost. These mid-season potatoes are praised for their flavor, uniform yields, and culinary versatility.
With a slightly nutty, earthy flavor and firm texture, they’re excellent baked, fried, mashed, or used in colorful salads. Their shape holds well during cooking, making them a standout for gnocchi and other firm preparations. Purple Majesty shines in any kitchen and pairs beautifully with Yukon Golds and russets in mixed potato dishes.
These tubers thrive in full sun with well-drained, compost-rich soil and benefit from regular hilling and consistent watering. Plant them once the risk of frost has passed, spacing 12 inches apart. Store harvested potatoes in a cool, dark, dry location to preserve quality and color.
