A great waxy new potato. Swift and Rocket are a couple of weeks earlier but tasteless, Accent and Accord are better general purpose. Mimi and Amandine are two very good similar but different varieties you could try but Lady Christl is hard to beat for flavour and ease of growing. Some folks rave about Charlotte (second early new potato), I guess they've never grown this one. If you want more floury new potatoes you should look for Epicure, the Dukes of York, Sharpes Express etc. but they're a bit more tricksy to grow.

I have been growing new potatoes for many years and started using Marshall's as they provided Lady Christl on line - so the annual search was over. It is easy to grow and the earliest, most tasty new potato. It is great in salads, boiled and roasted with a bit of rosemary and garlic. I often cheat and hand harvest a few very early while leaving the plants to continue growing. This provides a real melt in the mouth early summer experience.

we grew lady christl for the first time last year. they were excellent. massive crop of delicious potatoes which we have discovered will keep. we are still eating them in january and i find the larger ones bake very well in their jackets. they also roast well. will certainly be growing them again this year.
