American Purple Top Rutabaga
250 Seeds
Since the 1920’s, American Purple Top rutabaga has been the standard for both garden and market growers. Plants are reliable producers of wide, tapered roots with purple tops and fine-grained, golden interiors. Roots have a sweet, subtly spicy flavor that is delicious when roasted. We love to roast them with sweet potatoes, turnips, carrots, and sometimes brussels sprouts (add these during the last 20 minutes of roasting). Plants require very little care. We’ve been known to sow the seeds in late summer and then virtually neglect them until we harvest after the first frost. 90 days to harvest. 250 seeds per packet.
