🌿 How to Grow Forest Green Parsley

Parsley is slow to germinate—soaking seeds overnight can speed up the process. Sow outdoors as soon as the soil is workable in spring, or start indoors 6–8 weeks before your last frost. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

🛠️ Growing Tips

  • Harvest outer leaves first and let the inner ones keep growing.

  • Clip regularly to keep plants bushy and productive.

  • Parsley prefers cooler weather but tolerates heat well with some shade.

  • Can be overwintered in mild climates for a second-season harvest.
