Ferry-Morse 1331 Parsnip Seeds, Harris Model (2.5 Gram Packet) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)
Cultivated for its 12 to 15 inch white root that is smooth, tender and very sweet. Can be left in the ground without protection all winter for spring use. Freezing improves flavor! This packet will plant approximately a 68 foot row. Since parsnip seeds germinate slowly, it's a good idea to mark their rows by planting fast-germinating radish seeds. Sow 1 seed per inch in a row in full sun and well-drained soil. Cover seeds firmly with soil. Thin to 4 inches apart when plants are 2 inches tall.
