Dug the last of this and the salsify today as I needed the space clear now for my sprouts.  Might do again, I do have more seeds, depends on space really.

Plan to peel gently, cook gently and have with my lamb chop tonight.  (along with the other veggies that came home today..........)

i adore scorzonera - my grandmother always grew it and probably still does.
i am planning on growing some this year, have seeds and all.

how tall and wide do the plants grow, EJ?

[Mrs Ava]

mmmm, steamed then griddled with the onion.  Delish!

The plants were about....that big...by about that wide!  Oh I don't know, not huge, quite low growing, made a rosette of leaves, I guess, um, 40cm or so across........ :-\
