Parsnip – Countess
£5.99
High yielding with good disease tolerance
This variety of parsnip has good disease tolerance and is easy to grow. The parsnips form a smooth skin and are very uniform in shape. Growing from our plug plants is very easy – just pop them in your veg plot when your plants arrive – the parsnip plants come in biodegradable pots so you can just plant them as they come. This helps to minimise root disturbance. A complete growing guide is provided.
Number of plants: 10 plug plants
Variety: Countess (organic)
In the kitchen: Delicious roasted with some honey. Alternatively, try mashing your parsnips with other root vegetables. Parsnips can also be thinly sliced and fried to make delicious chips or crisps.
THESE PLANTS WILL BE SHIPPED IN SPRING 2024
Delivery Info: Please see FAQs for up-to-date delivery info.
