Russian Banana Yellow Fingerlings produce banana shaped tubers with creamy yellow flesh and light yellow-brown skin. The long slender potatoes are low in starch and rend to hold their shape; perfect for potato salads or scalloped potatoes, steamed, or oven roasted.
Plant potatoes in well-drained, deep loose fertile soil and water them regularly. With very three inches the plant grows mound more soil around the sides of the plant, this protects tubers from sunlight which can cause them to turn green and become toxic. Stop adding soil when flowers appear. Potatoes are ready to harvest when top of the plants have died off. Harvest carefully by hand, brush off soil, but do not wash until ready to use, it shortens their storage life. Store in a cool dry place.
