EXTRA TRIPLE CURLED (Moss Curled)

curled as to resemble tufts of moss. Aside from its value for 
flavoring and garnishing the plant is decorative. Taller than 
Paramount and lighter green, and generally more productive. 
Hamburg, Thick Rooted 
The root of this variety is edible and resembles a slender parsnip 
in color and shape. The flesh is white, dry, and similar to celeriac 
in flavor. The roots may be stored in sand for winter use.
