Notes
The Black Salsify plant has yellow ray flowers. Roots can be eaten and the leaves can be used as fresh greens for salads. The thin black taproot grows up to one 3 feet long and up to 3/4" in diameter. The root has a black skin with white internal flesh. In many organic gardens it's replacing a very similar crop called Salsify, because it’s roots tend to be longer, smoother, less fibrous, and of a finer texture. Black Salsify prefers deep, well drained soils. Deeper soils promote long, straight roots with few deformities. |
