The type SP shown was not an OSP. if we use the term edible and ornamental. it would be the edible. They were centennials. As for size I raised some pretty good sized tubers, actually roots. I come nowhere near the record size or weight. The largest one I have harvested was 6 lb.8oz. I will post it here again. As for ornamentals, they can have large roots too. One of the roots I dug up from the spot my blackies was just slightly larger than a softball.
I am not sure if it crossed with the Marguerite's or what as it is the one I am in question about. It is a cream colored tuber. Holly's blackies are reddish in color.
I am trying to get it to sprout, but no luck yet.
Anyway this was my large SP from 2006.
