Rare French potato variety sparks promise in Genesee County
A description of a new potato variant named spurl fenmel from 1575 notes its potential popularity. It resembles Bresee's Prolific but yields larger, more tubers with fuller eyes, which are white rather than pink. Boiling and baking quality earns high praise from tasters. The Genesee County King variety also records a strong season with abundant yield despite uneven sizes.
