Sow Salsify Seeds (March - May)

Salsify (Sandwich Island)  - Tragopogon porrifolius, Vegetable Oyster

Salsify is a new vegetable to me, but when I heard it was also called the oyster plant because of its oystery taste when cooked (root vegetable), I couldn't resist buying some seeds.

Salsify is a good source of Vitamin C and potassium.

Seeds sown in drills (will thin when large enough)
