Norland	Early maturity. The tubers are medium oblong, slightly flattened, medium thick smooth red skin, shallow eyes, white flesh. High yielding variety, adapts well to different soils. Sensitive to drought, susceptible to skinning and bruising if harvested before maturity; washes well at maturity. Short dormancy period, but stores well. Seldom produces tubers that are irregular in shape or growth cracked. Tubers are not subject to internal defects like hollow heart, internal necrosis and vascular discoloration. Very good for boiling and French-frying. Good for chipping. Fair for baking.
Red Pontiac	Mid-season to late maturity. The tubers are oblong to round smooth (sometimes netted) red skin, medium deep eyes, white flesh. High yielding variety. Widely adapted. Some drought resistance, bruises easily, susceptible to air cracking at harvest. Good storability. Medium dormancy.  Fair to good for boiling, baking, chipping and French-frying depending on maturity
Russet Burbank	Late to very late maturity. The tubers are large, long, cylindrical or slightly flattened, lightly to heavily netted russet-colored skin, many shallow evenly distributed eyes, white flesh. Medium to high yielding variety. Washes well at maturity. Long dormancy period, stores well. Requires a uniform moisture supply and long growing season to produce maximum quality tubers and to prevent knobbiness and second growth. Excellent for boiling, baking, chipping, and French-frying.
Russet Norkotah	Early to mid-season maturity. The tubers are long to slightly oblong, smooth. Heavy, dark, russeted and netted skin. Shallow bright golden eyes, white flesh. Medium yielding variety. Wide adaptability. Resistant to hollow heart. Good storability. Medium dormancy period. Tuber shape and type are very appropriate for the count-carton market. Not well suited for processing. Good for baking. Poor to moderate for boiling with some after cooking discoloration. Poor for chipping.
Sebago	Late to very late maturity. The tubers are elliptical to round-elliptical, medium thick; smooth ivory yellow skin; shallow eyes; white flesh. High yielding variety; fair to good storage quality; short dormancy period; sets few tubers if plants closely spaced. Medium specific gravity. Fair to good for boiling, baking, chipping and French-frying, depending on maturity.
Shepody	Mid-season maturity. The tubers are long, smooth to lightly netted buff skin, medium deep eyes, evenly distributed, white flesh. High yielding variety. Good resistance to second growth. Grades well with few culls. Good storage quality, needs through-the-pile ventilation. Excellent for boiling, baking, and French-frying. Unsuitable for chipping.
Snowden	Late maturity. The tubers are round to oval, slightly flattened, slightly netted buff skin, eyes medium shallow, white flesh. High yielding variety. Needs high levels of moisture. Good storage quality and short dormancy. Moderately susceptible to bruising. Excellent chipping quality. Good quality for boiling and baking.
Superior	Early to mid-season maturity. The tubers are oval to oblong, smooth shaped, uniform size, smooth to lightly flaked buff skin, evenly distributed medium-deep eyes, white flesh. Medium yielding variety. Self fertile, well adapted to mechanical harvesting. Short dormancy period. Stores well. Washes excellently. Tubers size early and are not subject to internal defects. Fair to good for boiling, baking and French-frying. Excellent for chipping.
Yukon Gold	Mid-season maturity. The tubers are oval, slightly flattened, finely flaked yellowish white skin, shallow pink eyes, light yellow flesh. Medium to high yielding variety. Large tubers are slightly susceptible to hollow heart. Excellent storability. Long dormancy period. Very good for boiling, baking, and French-frying. Unsuitable for chipping. Retains its yellow flesh color when cooked.
