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.

★★★★★ Perennial that keeps on giving!
By Tamera Marcus on February 8, 2017

I thought parsley was an annual plant. I'm in zone 7 and this variety has produced all winter long. It's delicious too. I put it in everything I cook and everyone agrees that it really makes a big difference in taste of final product. If you want a dependable parsley that never goes to seed (as long as it's trimmed) this is it!

★★★★★ Long lasting!
By Nancy Collver on February 2, 2015

I have grown several kinds of parsley over the years. I count this among my favorites. It is nicely frilled for garnishing, but the best thing about it is how long lasting the plant is... I had green parsley all winter! (Granted, it has been a fairly mild winter this year.) I have had mixed luck with starting parsley in the past and some can be fairly difficult. With this one I chilled the seeds for several days before planting, and it came up very nicely.
