The Mozart Potato is a distinct red-skinned variety with yellow flesh, introduced in 2003. Developed by HZPC in the Netherlands, it stands out for its delicious flavor and smooth texture, which sets it apart from traditional red potatoes that often prioritize color over taste. It features uniform, oval-shaped tubers with yellow eyes and attractive sunrise red skin. This variety is known for its good resistance to common scab and has a medium-late maturity. One of the notable features of Mozart potatoes is their excellent cooking quality; they do not darken following cooking and have a medium-high specific gravity, making them a versatile choice for a variety of culinary uses. They are also noted for their long dormancy and good storability.
Mozart potatoes typically ripen within 80-110 days, with each plant producing 12-15 tubers weighing 100-145 grams. They have good resistance to drought and heat, and their tubers tolerate long-term transportation well due to high resistance to damage. They are also insensitive to potato crayfish, scab, and golden nematode. However, they have low resistance to late blight.
