Variety Details
Arat
Enjoy the flavor of fresh parsley for soups, salads, and stews throughout the winter. Keeps several months when stored in cool conditions. Once roots are established, tops can be used for cooking, with stronger flavor and tougher texture than traditional leaf parsley. Roots are 5-8" long.
Sweet Annie
Tall plants with fern-like dark green foliage dotted with tiny cream-yellow colored flowers. Use foliage for wreaths and as filler for mixed bouquets. Also known as sweet sagewort, sweet wormwood, and Chinese wormwood.
Vertissimo
Excellent performance in our trials. Slow-bolting, vigorous plants. Mild, sweet, anise flavor. Popular for salads, microgreens, and garnishing. Edible Flowers: Chervil's flowers are edible, and used to garnish salads. Flavor is of mild licorice.
