This commonly grown herb is anything but common when it comes to its herbal qualities and uses. 'Italian' can be used dried or fresh for seasoning a myriad of different foods but that's only the start of its remarkable qualities. Its distinctive fan-like foliage has a laundry list of medicinal purposes and is used extensively in oils and herbal teas. 'Italian's' easy growing style is well suited to both the garden or a container and is happy merely with full sun and a well drained soil mix. Biennial.
Parsley should be planted in the garden, in outdoor containers, and indoors on a sunny windowsill. Water regularly as needed, more often if grown in containers.
