farmerdill said:One old timer that I really like I have not been able to grow here is the oyster plant ( Salsify) Grow beets, carrots, rutabagas, turnips. Parsnips in my youth was the starvation root. I n the dead of winter when nothing else was available, they were pretty good, but I have not been hungry enough to eat them since.

Hi I live in south Alabama and grew salsify as a over winter crop for the first time this fall. I still haven't harvested yet and only have 6 plants so I will try again this coming fall. Good luck
