Transplant (recommended): Sow in 1" cell containers. Seeds take at least 3 weeks to germinate.

Direct seed:

SOIL REQUIREMENTS: 
Grows well in moist, fertile soil. If planted in a well-drained location, it can normally be wintered over to produce a crop early the following spring. Mulch where temperatures go below 0°F (-18°C).

Water during dry spells and side-dress with compost or a balanced fertilizer once or twice during the growing period, if necessary.

PLANT HEIGHT: 
Varies.

PLANT SPACING:
8-12".

HARDINESS ZONES: 
Biennial.

HARVEST: 
Clip leaves when needed. To maintain the crispness and appearance of freshly harvested parsley, store at temperatures of 32–36°F/0–2.2°C at 95% relative humidity. Parsley can be used either fresh or dried. To dry, wash clipped leaves and spread out shallowly on screens in a warm, airy place. When thoroughly dry, rub and store in jars.
