Phureja Solanum phureja

Phureja has been planted 1 time by Growstuff members.

Solanum tuberosum Group Phureja is a cultivar-group of diploid potato plants originating from the Andean valleys in South America.

Phureja differs from other potato cultivar-groups by the absence of dormant tubers. This means that the tuber immediately begins to grow once it is formed, without a resting period. This explains why the varieties of the group are to be planted in areas with a mild climate, where culture throughout the year is possible.
