Italian Parsley Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Direct sow in early spring or late summer. Parsley can be slow to start, so be patient with her!
2. Preparation: Prefers full sun to partial shade and rich, moist soil. It is very adaptable to container gardening.
3. Sowing: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep. Some gardeners soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to speed up germination.
4. Care: Keep the soil consistently moist. Since it is a biennial, it will grow leaves the first year and produce seeds the second.
5. Pests and Diseases: Generally very resilient. If you see bright green and black striped caterpillars, those are future Swallowtail butterflies—consider planting enough to share!
