Coriandrum, Cilantro 'Chinese Parsley' Heirloom
- Sun Preference
- Full-Sun
Description
Chinese parsley, or cilantro, is a quick growing leafy herb. Its distinctly flavored leaves add flavor to soups and stir-fries.
Easy to grow in almost any soil with full sun to part shade. Start outdoors in early spring as soon as soil can be worked. In mild climates, grow as a fall/winter crop. Sow every two weeks for a continuous harvest. Pull entire plant when it’s 3-4″ tall, or harvest leaves as needed. Hot, dry weather can cause the plant to bolt (send up a seed stalk). Seeds may be harvested and stored for recipes that require coriander.
