Parsley - root

Parsley requires deep, wet, light, well-prepared soil. The roots reach high quality when grown on ridges. We focus on breeding of root parsley. It is logical. Root parsley is indispensable vegetable in Central European cuisine and has been grown in the Czech lands since times immemorial. Our new varieties exceed the competing ones mainly due to their excellent health. Powdery mildew, rot and rust tolerance do matter of course. Our customers can choose among standard, precision or primed precision seeds. We intensively test the suitability of mycoparasitic and supportive preparations for the treatment of root parsley seeds. We believe that we will be able to offer you this type of seed treatment in very near future.
