Variety Info: Clancy’ is an ideal “creamer” potato with fine texture, making it very versatile. Potatoes may be round or elongated (fingerling); the skins can be rose blush to red or creamy yellow, some with red spots or dots. ‘Clancy’ was bred by Peter van Hest; it is the first potato from seed that is an AAS winner. Seeds are sterile which helps prevent diseases from spreading like they can on a tuber.
