Every year Suffolk mail order ‘grow your own’ specialist D T Brown supplies its customers with a free trial seed variety, allowing the company to gain invaluable feedback on products to add to its range
The aim of the trial is to allow growers located across the country with differing soil types and growing conditions to test the same variety and give feedback on yield, appearance, overall performance and, importantly, flavour. Parsnip ‘Sabre F1’ is a British-bred variety with long and extremely white, smooth-skinned roots. The roots show good resistance to canker and the fresh white skin has an exceptional finish, making this trial variety well suited to the show bench too.
