the size of, and somewhat like, Early Horn Carrots. They 
are yellowish-white, rather sweet, and have the same 
flavour as the leaves of the Common Chervil. The seeds 
retain their germinative properties a short time only; 
consequently, they must either be sown as soon as ripe, 
or be kept in sand through the winter, out of the reach 
of frost. If sown late in autumn, the seeds will, in all 
probability, perish. When stratified during winter, the 
seeds may be sown in March, either broadcast, or in 
drills 1ft. apart. Тһе leaves wither about July, when 
the roots may be lifted and stored, like Potatoes, in a 
dry shed. The beds must be kept clean in summer by 
frequent hoeings. Bulbons-rooted Chervil is eaten, when 
cooked, as a vegetable, but it is not extensively culti- 
vated in this country.
