_Sowing date:_ March. Parsley seed takes two to three weeks to
germinate.
_Spacing:_ Thin to 12 inches apart in a single row 4 feet wide. Five
plants should overwhelm the average kitchen.
_Irrigation:_ Not necessary unless yield falls off during summer and
that is very
unlikely. Parsley's very deep, foraging root system
resembles that of its relative, the carrot.
_Varieties:_ If you use parsley for greens, variety is not critical,
though the gourmet may note slight differences in flavor or amount
of leaf curl. Another type of parsley is grown for edible roots that
taste much like parsnip. These should have their soil prepared as
carefully as though growing carrots.
