Growing Information
Growing Hollow Crown Heirloom Parsnip
‘Hollow Crown’ is an heirloom parsnip prized for its fine-grained white flesh, mild sweetness, and excellent flavor. This classic variety produces attractive mature roots and performs best in deep, loose soil where the roots can develop freely.
Sow ‘Hollow Crown’ directly in the garden about ½ inch deep and space plants about 12 inches apart. Grow in full sun. This cold-tolerant variety performs especially well during cool growing conditions.
Ready to harvest in about 105 days, begin digging roots once they reach the desired size while they are still tender.
Mild, sweet, and hearty, ‘Hollow Crown’ is excellent for roasting, soups, stews, mashing, everyday cooking, and storage.
