Notes

'Darki Green' parsley (Petroselinum crispum 'Darki Green') is an herb for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows in a clumping form that reaches 12 to 16 inches tall. The foliage is fragrant, and butterflies visit it.

Pairs well with Truchas lettuce, Crokini F1 tomato, Persian basil, and Alpha calendula.
