the thin yellow skinned, light yellow flesh tubers are round to oval shaped and easy to peal;
high yield potential and high dry matter content; in contrast with many other varieties with a high dry matter content, Lady Claire has a high resistance to damage and bruising;
the early maturity allows flexibility in planting period to optimise the timing of the harvest;
Lady Claire can be stored at a temperature of 5°C (41°F);
