Down on the Allotment

Matron grows vegetables and fruit in a Hampshire garden. I've been growing veggies since I was knee high to a grasshopper. Some traditional varieties and old favourites as well as new ideas. I share my garden with my allotment assistant Daisy the Labrador. On Twitter as @MatronsVeggies

Epicure New Potatoes

One of the highlights of the Allotment year is the first harvest of new potatoes.  This variety is Epicure, a traditional old Ayrshire potato.  Definitely my favourite variety of all time. Round shaped, deep eyes, the most brilliant flavour ever! Bon appetite!

Mmm! I love the flavour of fresh new potatoes!
My Dad used to grow Epicure, lovely delicate and sweet when young.
