OVERVIEW
A team of UW-Madison researchers has developed a new red skin potato line, called "Villetta Rose," for fresh market, canning and gourmet use (steamers). This variety has medium-late maturity and is particularly well-suited for canning. It has high tuber set; a uniform, round tuber shape; smooth, shallow eyes; uniform tuber size; good skin set; dark-red color at harvest; and white flesh. The tubers have a very attractive appearance. They are somewhat smaller than comparable varieties and the yield is in the medium range.
