Cilantro Confetti
A mild and simply delicious flavor.
This variety may remind you of carrot tops, with feathery, ferny leaves on long, sturdy stems. Expect them to reach 25 to 28 inches high in no time, and begin cutting them as soon as the plant has good growth. Slow to bolt, Confetti is a variety that can be grown right into the warmer months!
Cilantro is used in Mexican, Thai, Chinese, and Indian cooking. It is a staple of great Salsa, with a very spicy bite that complements the acidity of Tomatoes and limes nicely. Pick fresh leaves all summer long! And Coriander is a fragrant spice widely used in Middle Eastern and Indian cuisine. Fresh Cilantro and Coriander from your garden are infinitely more aromatic and flavorful than most store-bought versions, so consider adding it to your vegetable garden this season!
Give Confetti full sunshine to very light shade and any moist, well-drained garden soil (the richer the better). Hold off on fertilizers that contain nitrogen, which could reduce the flavor of the leaves and seeds. This is a very quick-growing herb, setting leaves that can be harvested just 4 weeks after sowing the seed! Pkt is 100 seeds.
