Features

notes
With a stronger flavour than the better-known curly leaf variety of Parsley, the triangular aromatic leaves are wonderful to use as a garnish or to add flavour to sauces and dressings. In summer, small, yellow green star shaped flowers are formed. 
Insights

Grown in peat free compost in a biodegradable pot made from waste coir and natural latex. Remove plant from pot or cut/tear away some of the coir if the plant is well rooted and hard to remove.

Details
  • Flowers: July- September
Planting
  • Moist, well-drained soil
  • South, West or East aspect
  • Full sun or partial sunlight
Care
  • Pop the discarded coir pot in the green bin, leave out for birds to use for nesting, use as mulch or add to compost heap
  • Remove flowers unless they are wanted for seed
  • Harvest leaves by cutting from the base of the stem to encourage bushier growth
  • Coir pots are supplied by one specific village producer in Sri Lanka. They have built a school, old people's home and extension to the local medical centre over the years from the proceeds of coir pot production
