Modern F1 hybrid with smooth skin and excellent canker resistance. Sweet flesh, especially after frost.
Flavour
Gladiator parsnips offer a sweet, nutty flavour that intensifies after exposure to frost, with a smooth, creamy texture.
In the kitchen
Ideal for roasting over fire or in foil on the BBQ, Gladiator parsnips caramelise beautifully, adding a natural sweetness to smoky dishes.
Growing
Plant Gladiator in well-drained, fertile soil with consistent moisture; its excellent canker resistance makes it a reliable choice for extended outdoor cultivation.
