Evergreen Parsley
Petroselinum crispum
Petroselinum crispum
70 days — 'Evergreen parsley' grows vigorously and exhibits more frost resistance than other varieties. The leaves are compound, curled, dark-green and large. Parsley becomes very bitter as the plant starts to flower. Parsley has been cultivated for centuries and is used as a garnish, palate cleanser, flavoring in soups, salads, and as a seasoning in other recipes. Some varieties, like 'Hamburg Rooted', are used as a vegetable.
An "All-America Selection®" winner in 1940. A biennial plant, parsley is typically grown as an annual. Each packet contains two grams, which is approximately 300 seeds.
Herbalists have used it as a breath freshener, digestive aid, and in tea to treat high blood pressure and rheumatism. Because it is high in vitamins A and C, it has also been used as a quinine substitute to treat malaria.
For best germination results, freeze seed for three to five days and
then soak in warm water for about eight hours before sowing. Cover seed
lightly as darkness helps germination.

If a parsley farmer is sued, can they garnish his wages?
