Petroselinum crispum Origin: Mediterranean Improvement status: Cultivar Seeds per packet: ~50 Germination tested 01/2025: 84% Life cycle: Perennial This is consistently one of the most popular types of parsley available. The densely curled leaves are barely recognizable as parsley when compared to flat-leaf varieties, but they reveal themselves upon consumption. The flavor is fresh and sprightly, like all parsley, but it is more mild than other varieties. Because it produces so much leaf volume, it's great for vegetable use, as in tabbouleh.So many people think of parsley as just a garnish, but we should really all be eating as much of it as possible because it's just so darn nutritious!
