Absolutely bowled over by the rich lavender /lilac colour of the skin on my Arran Victory.
Having never grown this variety before, what are they best for?

Sarcastic actually

, tongue-in-cheek I hasten to add

.
Tuckers do not have much of an on-line sales thing for seeds, etc.
Request their catalogue, it is quite old-fashioned, few pictures, black and white, but full to bursting with varieties standard & organic.

I keep digging them up in my plot (I've never planted them) and they are the most wonderful colour.
