Flat Leaf Parsley 'Gigante di Napoli' (Petroselinum crispum var. neapolitanum)
- Perfect for Pots
- Scented
This one came out top in our trials, with larger leaves and a better flavour than parsleys
It is superb raw in salad, scattered over tomatoes or in tabbouleh with couscous. Very hardy and perfectly happy outside all the way through the winter in my Sussex garden.
