Well, you got me on this one. Everywhere I looked it simply said it is an
ancient vegetable. Did you try looking it up under the term 'oyster plant'? It
can be grown succesfully whereever carrots and parsnips thrive. I will
continue looking for more info and post it as I find it unless there is
someone else who might be able to help here..
