Planting instructions: Parsnips grow similar to carrots and don't handle mid-summer weather well. Parsnips should be planted in the early spring in well drained soil. Place seeds in tilled and enriched soil right after the last frost. Tilling deeper gives the roots more room to grow and develop.
Care: Soil should be worked to a foot to a foot and a half deep and manured or composted to get healthy roots. Use mulch or grass clippings to keep heat off of plant. Water only during dry and warm times.
Harvesting: Root should be ready to dig in late September.
Nutritional Value: Parsnips are a good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamins C and K, Folate, and Potassium.
Collecting Seed: Wait until the plant matures and begins to dry out. Cut the flowering heads and set aside to dry. Remove seeds from heads a set aside in a cool dry place.

Delivery was quick and the product was in perfect condition. The germination rate was fantastic for both varieties (95%+) much better than I am used to from other seed suppliers. Thank you for the good service, product and price.
