Notes
'Curly' parsley (Petroselinum crispum 'Curly') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It handles cool weather and a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows as a clumping mound about 9 to 12 inches tall, and the fragrant leaves make it an easy choice for a low maintenance garden.
Pairs well with Fernleaf dill, Persian basil, Black Magic kale, and Candyland Red tomato.
