Great condition. Easy job sprouting and sent with the correct amount of time to plant and not get damaged. Only disappointment was how few there were, but a pound is a pound.

Grew amazingly.
Easy to grow and grew abundantly. Not my favorite flavor of potato, but not bad at all either. Made for fun mashed potatoes for the kids... not you need to make mashed potatoes fun for kids.

Blue Chips
This blue potato made for delicious oven baked chips.I had an odd planting season and the plants were not impressive at first, but the blue flowers were pretty and the harvest was more than I had anticipated considering the small size of the plant. I recommend the Adirondack blue potato if you like chips.

Better than expected
My potato crop; because of weather conditions 1st to wet then drought, this year was at best described as terrible. The only potatoes to satisfactorily produce were the Adirondack Blues

Big waste of money.
Took over a month before they shipped the seed potatoes (three different types), and it was well past the time window of when I wanted to get them in the ground. When I finally got them planted, they never sprouted, and just rotted in the ground. Meanwhile I acquired seed potatoes from a local source, and had a 99% success rate at sprouting with those.I wasted time, money, and garden space on these seed potatoes from Maine.
