{"product_id":"sium-sisarum","title":"Sium sisarum | skirret","description":"\u003cp\u003eSkirret (\u003cem\u003eSium sisarum\u003c\/em\u003e) is a perennial root vegetable related to carrots and parsnips. We grow it because it is a beautiful, easy care umbellifer that puts out masses of white blooms late in the season. And, of course, because it is edible. Tender young leaves can be eaten in spring and the root bunch can be harvested (and replanted) in fall. This root vegetable has been in cultivation for over 1,000 years and has fallen in and out of favor over the centuries.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a longer write-up including harvest pictures, recipes, and how-to's, check out \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.foodforest.garden\/2016\/01\/05\/growing-and-eating-skirret\/\" title=\"A Food Forest in Your Garden\"\u003eA Food Forest in your Garden\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZones:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3 to 9\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/olddairynursery.com\/pages\/plant-families\" title=\"Plant Family Collection list at The Old Dairy Nursery\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFamily\u003c\/a\u003e: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/olddairynursery.com\/collections\/plant-family-apiaceae\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Apiaceae plant family collection at The Old Dairy Nursery\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eApiaceae\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/olddairynursery.com\/collections\/herbaceous\" title=\"Herbaceous perennial collection at The Old Dairy Nursery\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHerbaceous perennial\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e12 to 36 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpread:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e12 to 18 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExposure:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFull Sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003emoist, well-drained\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBloom Time:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJuly to August\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNative Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eE.
