Italian Parsley
Petroselinum crispum neapolitanum
72 days — 'Italian' parsley has deeply cut, dark green leaves with a rich, flavor that is generally stronger than other curled types. 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.Petroselinum crispum neapolitanum
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.
