Potato (Solanum tuberosum 'Baltic Rose')

While the potato itself (Solanum tuberosum) originates in the Andes Mountains of South America, the variety ‘Baltic Rose’ is likely from **Northern Europe, specifically the Baltic Sea region.**

Here’s why:

* **”Baltic” in the name:** This strongly suggests a connection to the Baltic Sea region, encompassing countries like Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland, Germany, Russia (Kaliningrad Oblast), Sweden, and Finland.
* **Breeding location:** Most potato varieties are developed and bred in specific regions to optimize for local climate and growing conditions. While I lack specific breeding information for ‘Baltic Rose’, the name strongly suggests it was developed in one of the Baltic countries.

Therefore, the most likely geographical location or native region of the ‘Baltic Rose’ potato is **somewhere within the Baltic Sea region of Northern Europe.** It would be more definitive to know in which specific country it was developed.
