Flat Parsley Seeds - Petroselinum crispum

Carum petroselinum, or parsley, is a well-known culinary herb.

This vigorous and biennial plant bears light green foliage. The leaves are divided and curled, and the flowers are greenish in colour. It adds decoration to salads and meat and fish dishes, and flavours soups, stews, and sauces. Parsley is rich in vitamin A, B, and C, as well as calcium, magnesium, sodium, and essential fatty acids. It is recommended by the National Institute of Agricultural Botany.

Sow flat parsley seeds from February to August-September in well-drained, fertile, and slightly humus-bearing soil. They take time to germinate. At the time of harvest, it will reach 70cm tall (12 to 14 weeks after planting).
