I'm growing them for the first time this season, so I have no experience to speak from. We'll see how they work out!

I understand that they are long growing (4 months) and indeterminate.
Yes, this is so. Did not yield as well as Peruvian Purples, but did OK and made rather good gratin, decent mashed. They also overwinter well under a thick layer of straw and leaves, should you run out of time.
