Viking is a beautiful red-skinned potato with creamy white flesh, known for its excellent flavor and versatility in the kitchen. It’s a high-yielding variety that performs well in a variety of soil conditions and is great for boiling, baking, and mashing.

To grow your Viking potatoes successfully, here are some guidelines for care:

  • Plant in well-drained, loose soil after danger of frost has passed
  • Hill soil around plants as they grow to protect developing tubers
  • Water consistently (especially during flowering and tuber development)
  • Fertilize at planting and again mid-season (use a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer)
  • Harvest mid-season when vines begin to yellow and die back
  • Great for fresh eating
  • Moderate storage potential
  • Resistant to scab and known for consistent size and shape
