Excellent for exhibition and for culinary purposes. Long, smooth-skinned roots with considerable resistance to canker. An essential part of your Sunday roast! Specially recommended. RHS Award of Garden Merit winner.

Heritage Seed Variety, 1929 packet details - An admirable Parsnip which increases in popularity every year. Not quite so large as our Student, but more perfect in form, of the finest quality, with a clear and smooth skin. We consider this to be the best Parsnip in existence.

Growing Information

Sow late February-May outdoors in well-cultivated ground manured for a previous crop. Lift for use as required. (32-36 weeks maturity.)

Sowing Information

Sow thinly into finely raked, warm, moist soil at a depth of 13mm ( 1?2") in rows 30cm (12") apart. Thin seedlings to 15cm (6") between plants. For exhibition purposes sow 3 or 4 seeds in prepared holes previously filled with finely sieved compost. Thin to strongest seedling. Grows best in well cultivated soil which has not recently been manured, otherwise forked roots may occur. Lift roots as required. Frosts sweeten the flavour.
