@conmanumber1 Hi Carl, the Jersey Royal is not the same potato as your Jersey bennes, Jersey Royals are only allowed to be grown in Jersey although some seed I suspect has been taken by seasonal workers when they return home to grow in their veg patch over the years. There was a history in our local paper a couple of months ago of how one jersey farmer started the Jersey royal a couple of hundred years ago which led to them eventually being grown Island wide.
