A Parsnip seed field in full bloom makes an attractive picture. 
Two years are required to produce seed; first year the parsnip, 
the next year the seed. Yes, Bud does look rather young in this

still with us.

Pkt. will sow 40 ft. row 
¥% oz. will sow 100 ft. 
Seed germinates very slowly and particular care 
should be taken to have the soil in good condition be- 
fore planting. Sow in rows % inch deep and 12 to 18 
inches apart. Thin seedlings to a stand of 4 inches 
apart in row. 
Parsnips may be dug in the fall, covered with leaves 
and used throughout the winter or they may be dug in 
the spring. 
*320 HARRIS MODEL: 150 days. An improved 
strain of the old Hollow Crown but better filled at 
the sides. The roots are well shaped, smooth and 
white. We grow this seed from selected transplanted 
roots. This increases the cost but we feel that it is 
worth it to the gardener who wants quality parsnips.
