One of the most blight resistant potatoes available in the UK! Add excellent scab, slug and drought resistance, combine it with great taste and versatility and you've got all the makings of an excellent all-round potato to grow at home. A red skinned variety with a dry, fluffy texture making it ideal for mash, roasts and chips and with deliciously crispy skins and a buttery taste, Setanta will make the perfect baker too! It stores well so can be enjoyed for many months after harvest. Potatoes are one of the most rewarding vegetables to grow. There's the nurturing process of chitting, planting

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as MR. FOTHERGILL'S SEEDS LIMITED, number 01710774. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
