Does anybody grow these? My grandmother used to in Wales but I do
not think I have seen any anywhere in several decades. I tried with
salsify in Cambridge but my ground is stony and the roots split. They
are both delicious vegetables.

I have grown both in recent years. They are nice but not (in my opinion)
nice enough and easy enough to prepare to carry on growing them on my
small plot.
