Sakura Sweet Potato
Sweet potato
Sakura was selected for its attractive purple skin, unique flesh color, and premium flavor. Unlike intense purple-fleshed varieties that tend to be dry and bitter, Sakura has a very moist and sweet flesh, with the right amount of anthocyanin to color the root and provide a unique flavor.
