Post by: chrissie B on October 10, 2010, 07:24

hi all , after having a small sucess with parsnips last year i have got some more in i just planted them in september which you might think a bit late but they just dont like the heat but i have two nice lines that are about 3/4 ins tall so fingers crossed i wont have them for Christmas but i can wait , in the mean time there is allways celeriac as a substitute its lovley roasted .
