White Half Long Parsnip, or Pastinaca sativa, is a rewarding, easy-to-grow heirloom variety of parsnip. Known for its sweet, nutty flavor, this variety produces uniform, creamy-white roots perfect for a variety of dishes.

  • Hardy and Adaptable - White Half Long Parsnips (Halbange Weisse in German) are a reliable, early maturing variety, tolerant to cooler temperatures. The plants can be left outdoors in the ground until needed and harvested fresh, as cold temperatures enhance the flavor of this root veggie. They produce a 5-7 inch root, with the green leaves of the plants reaching 12-18 inches tall. This parsnip is a prime choice for smaller gardens and container growing.
  • Versatile Crop - Parsnip is a root vegetables in the carrot family, but with a more nutty or earthy flavor and a hint of spiciness that goes well with savory dishes. This heirloom variety produces creamy-white, tender roots that can be used for roasting, stews, soups, or eaten raw.
