Flat Leaf Parsley, also called Italian parsley, has similar uses to the curly variety but the flavor is a bit stronger. Plants are 1 foot tall and produce sprigs of large, flat leaves all season. Preferred in Italian cooking.

Lots of Parsley!
I planted some seeds in two medium pots, some in small pots and some in the ground. The plants in the pots did well. The Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillars enjoyed the two medium pots but the parsley is growing back. I gave a couple small pots to a friend and they did well in the ground. I’m afraid a rabbit got to my parsley in the ground but it is coming back. I’m hoping the parsley will make it through the winter so I will have parsley next spring.

Hardy and productive
Our garden space is tiny and the spring parsley planting did quite well in it small space among the other herbs and greens. A second planting is underway, to be put out once the summer squash comes out
