Plant Spotlight: Giant of Italy Parsley

These seeds were purchased from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds. www.rareseeds.com

"A Mediterranean native, parsley sports bright green leaves and lends its delightfully fresh flavor to cuisines from aroud the word. Typically grown as a biennial, this luscious herv prefers full sun and well-drained soils. Seeds may be slow to get started and gemination can be uneven, but an overnight soak in lukewarm water will certainly speed things up. If plants are allowed to bolt and set seed, the winter birds will enjoy the treat and you will be rewarded with a fine crop of reseeded parsley to enjoy the following year!" -www.rareseeds.com
