Reply To: scorzonera and cima di rapa

I grow scorzonera, mainly because I tried it and salsify, and scorzonera has the enormous advantage of being perennial, and after two years has decent roots, while salsify is annual and after one year unimpressive. I sow direct in spring, and eat it the winter after next – very delicious with cream, garlic and parmesan (but then what isn’t)
