Forest Green parsley
$4.00 – $8.00
(Petroselinum crispum)
Tightly curled, finely cut frilly leaves on strong stems. An excellent, productive and delicious parsley with impressive cold-hardiness; we have kept harvesting even when we have to dig down through the snow to find the plants! It makes an excellent winter salad when great quantities are paired with shredded kohlrabi (about 1/3 parsley and 2/3 kohlrabi).
Biennial. Plant May-July. Sow 1/4” deep, 1/4” apart in rows 16” apart; thin to 4”. Cover seedbed with mulch until seedlings emerge; topdress with a little compost. Leave in ground to go to seed in second year.
Cover with thick evergreen branches or old hay to protect for the winter.
