beware parsnips
Mike..... writes
Following up to Nick Maclaren Firstly, it affects only some people, and few people are seriously affected. assuming wild and cultivated have the same effect I suspect that isnt true:- "http://128.104.239.6/uw_weeds/extension/articles/wildparsnip.htm" That's a big assumption to make here. The article refers to 'wild parsnip' which is becoming a noxious weed in Wisconsin. Before jumping to conclusions about cultivated parsnip, I would want to know the species concerned (which on a quick skim read didn't seem to be in the article), and that it was indeed the ancestor of the cultivated parsnip (wild garlic is not te ancestor of cultivated garlic). -- Kay |
