overwintered parsnips
brian mitchell writes
The last of these still in the ground are now putting on some luxuriant
topgrowth, presumably gearing themselves up to flower. Would it be
advisable to either cut off the foliage or lift them for storage
elsewhere?
Yes. The root is a storage facility to power the new growth in the
spring, so the more they grow, the more the parsnips will shrivel.
