Flat-leaf parsley is far more nutritious than the curly type. Cut the entire plant at once for drying the leaves as a spice, or harvest the individual leaves as you need them. The plant will keep sprouting new stems all season long. Ornamental enough to put in the flowering annual bed as well as the herb garden, this plant is a biennial but should be grown as an annual (it flowers early the second year, destroying the rich flavor of the foliage). You will love it in the sunny garden.
