General Information: Italian Flat Leaf Parsley, also known as plain-leaf or continental parsley, features dark green, serrated leaves with a stronger, less bitter flavor than curly parsley. It is a biennial herb typically grown as an annual.

Growing Information: Direct sow seeds outdoors after the last frost or start indoors 6-8 weeks prior. Seeds can be slow to germinate (14-30 days). For best results, soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to improve germination rates. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in well-draining soil.

USDA Hardiness Zones: Grows as an annual in all USDA zones (2-11). It is frost-tolerant and can be planted in early spring and again in late summer for a fall harvest.

Light Requirements: Prefers full sun to partial shade (at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily).

Water Requirements: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water regularly, especially during dry spells.

Harvesting: Begin harvesting leaves when the plant is well-established, cutting stems from the outer portion of the plant to encourage continued growth. Regular harvesting promotes bushier plants.

Perfect for herb gardens, container gardening, kitchen windowsills, and as a companion plant in vegetable patches. Your packet contains a generous quantity of 2500+ seeds, providing ample supply for multiple plantings and seasons.
