DescriptionItalian Parsley, also known as Flat-Leaf Parsley, is deeply rooted in the Mediterranean Region. For centuries, it has been a key ingredient in Italian cuisine, imparting a unique flavor to pasta dishes, sauces, salads, and more. Its flat leaves boast a robust flavor that make it a favorite of chefs and home cooks alike.The best time to start sowing Italian Parsley seeds in Georgia is during early spring or fall. These seasons offer mild temperatures, which create ideal conditions for germination and early growth.For best results, grow Parsley over two growing seasons in North, South, and Central Georgia. The Spring Season, where Parsley is started in Late Winter/Early Spring and harvested into the Late Spring and Summer. The Fall Season, where Carrots are started in Summer and harvested into the Early Winter. Specific Recommended Growing Dates are listed below.

Parsley survives extreme cold better than it does extreme heat. This means that in North, Central, and South Georgia the two peak seasons for growing Parsley are Late Spring into Early Summer and Fall as it transitions into Winter. In Coastal Georgia, Fall, Winter and Spring make for a slightly longer peak growing season.Seed Pack Contains 80 heirloom seeds.Sun Exposure: Full Sun (at least 6 hours of Sunlight)Frost Tolerant?: Yes (Temperatures as low as 20 degrees)Heirloom?: YesDays Until Harvest/Maturity: 70-90Planting Depth: ¼”Distance Between Rows: 18 inchesDistance Between Plants: 2.5 inchesRecommended Planting Dates:Do not feel restricted to planting exclusively within the following date ranges.
