Potatos in zone 10 Arizona Desert

[jonnyyuma]

Hello,
I thought I would try a potato question. My in-laws spend time in Missouri and I always have her bring me potatos back from their local farmers market because they are so great.

Can I grow potatos in this part of the country? It is extremely hot and dry. I can get ground that is somewhat sandy.

I really like the potatos that I have gotten from the farmers market, but getting them delivered from Missouri is not practical.

Thanks
Jonny

Find out the time that most folks plant potatoes and I'll send you some. And if you know the varieties by name that would help.
