Nectar is new age yellow flesh variety able to serve the needs of growers producing conventional size or possibly baby potatoes. An excellent choice for the retail/fresh and packing sector. Nectar produces very high yields of A-­size potatoes with outstanding uniformity.

Tuber numbers are good and skin finish is bright, smooth and attractive. Due to high resistance to silver scurf and black dot, pack-out percentages are exceptional from long term storage. Great texture and taste profile.
