Narrative

Seedling selected in 2004 by Tom Wagner. Diploid gold fleshed Criolla type, with thin white skin, sometimes slight russetting. Pedigree unknown, but based on crosses with Yema de Huevo types and diploid adapted tuberosum. Selected for adaptation to long-day North American growing season. Not self-fertile, but good male and female fertility. Vigorous, small vines and leaves of the phurja/stenotomum type. Short tuber dormancy, but much longer than native Criolla from Colombia, e.g., less susceptible to fall field sprouting. Tuber size of 2-7 cm, round, with shallow eyes. About 30 cm in-row spacing recommended. Set highly variable depending on highly variable number of stems, depending on physiological age and sprout numbers of tubers. Earlier maturity and much less cling than unadapted Colombian types. Cooks very quickly, with very good flavor and classic Criolla texture, particularly when harvested immature.
