This TEAGASC early is interesting because it is the most blight resistant early variety for most areas. Blight is now more virulent and onset of infection is earlier -in some areas even Orla has suffered It is attractive and, with the exception of eelworm, has good disease resistance. It also has good early yields to beat blight, particularly if seed is chitted. Unusually for an early it has long dormancy and stores quite well.
