Vivaldi potato

Botanical features of this variety include a tall plant with stems weakly pigmented and slightly swollen nodes.

Terminal and primary leaflets are ovate, the flowers have orange anthers and a white corolla with a prominent star.

It is moderately resistant to leaf roll, potato virus X, late blight on tuber, silver scurf, blackleg and black dot, and is moderately susceptible to late blight on leaves, common scab, powdery scab, rhizoctonia and skin spot.

[4] The variety has the advantage of producing a good crop of potatoes, with a longer than average harvest time.

[7] The UK producers reported that laboratory studies "suggested" 'Vivaldi' to be lower in calories and carbohydrates than many other popular potato varieties.
