HUNGARIAN LANDRACE PARSLEY SEEDS

Petroselinum crispum

This unique parsley has none of the metallic overtones that many Italian flat leaf parsleys have. The flavor and tender leaf makes it ideal for persillade and for tossing by the handful into brothy soups. Disease-resistant and hardy. Not entirely uniform, but that is part of the charm and value of any landrace. Ideal for budding breeders. Could be selected further for vigor and upright stature, although some of the floppier plants have the best eating qualities.

Sow into flats several weeks before transplanting in early spring. Germinates best at cool temperatures. Do not use heat! Germination is erratic and takes place over the course of a few weeks. Seeds may also be sown directly into the garden in early spring, although we find this even slower and more tedious than starting seeds in flats. For faster cutting parsley sow Einfasche Schnitt directly into the garden in early spring.

Packet contains at least 300 seeds.
