Summary

[edit]
Description

50 ESCULENT ROOTS.
Hollow-Crowned. Trans.
Long Jersey. Hollow-crowned Guernsey. Hollow-headed.
In this variety, the leaves are shorter and not so numerous
as those of the Comm6n Parsnip. The roots are oblong,
about eighteen inches in length, and four inches in diameter
at the shoulder, more swollen at the top, and not tapering
gradually, but ending somewhat abruptly with a small tap-
root. The crown is short, and quite sunk into the shoulder, so
as to form a hollow ring around the insertion of the stalks of
the leaves; and grows mostly below the surface of the ground.
It is a good sort for general cultivation, especially as it does
not require so deep a soil as either the Common, or Guernsey.
There is little difference in the flavor or general qualities of
the three varieties.
Siam, or Yellow. Thomp.
Panais de Siam.
This is said to be more tender and richer in flavor than any
of the other varieties. It is mentioned by Dr. Neill in the
" Encyclopaedia Britannica," and is described by M. Noisette
as being yellowish in color, and in form intermediate between
the Guernsey and Turnip-rooted Parsnips. He also states
that it is the most esteemed. It does not, however, appear
to be known at the present day in this country.
Turnip-Rooted. Trans.
Panais Pond, of the French.
The leaves of this sort are few, and do not
exceed twelve to sixteen inches in length.
The roots are from four to six inches in di-
ameter, tunnel-shaped, tapering very abruptly,
with a strong tap-root ; the whole being from
twelve to fifteen inches in length. The rind
is rougher than either of the other sorts ; the

shoulder very broad, growing above the surface

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
