I love Parsnips but have found that one is unable to buy the seed in SA except maybe at a farmers coop in bulk I have family in the UK and have had them send me seeds but am told the seeds do not have a long shelf life so best to let one or two go to seed and replant from them.

Hi Give www.soughtafterseedlings.co.za a go - I have order many seeds from them that I've not been able to get at the local nursery. Enjoy Gaynor
