Thompson & Morgan Parsnip Albion

BUYERS NOTES

Long, smooth, white-skinned, tapering roots of uniform size with a delicious sweet flavour and good texture. Good canker resistance, especially from later sowings. Lifted roots store well for winter use.

Sowing Information:

Sow April to May, earlier sowings may attract canker. Sow seeds thinly, 1cm (¬Ωin) deep in drills 45cm (18in) apart. Sow clusters of 3 seeds every 15cm (6cm) and thin out to the strongest seedling after germination. Germination can sometimes be very slow, especially if sown too early or in wet soils.

-

Aftercare Information:

Harvest the roots from autumn onwards, leaving them in the ground if required. Alternatively lift and store in boxes of barely moist soil, peat or sand.
