Italian Giant Parsley Seeds (Petroselinum crispum) – 200+ Non-GMO Heirloom Seeds for Planting, Large Flat Leaves with Bold Aroma & Flavor, by Isla’s Garden Seeds, Gift Idea for Gardeners

Italian Giant Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) delivers broad, flat, deeply green leaves packed with rich, savory flavor. A kitchen staple, it’s ideal for chimichurri, tabbouleh, sauces, salads, and fresh garnishes—harvest often for continuous, tender growth.

Vigorous plants form lush, upright clumps reaching 12–18 inches. Italian Giant thrives in beds, raised planters, and containers, producing generous bunches of stems that regrow quickly after cutting for dependable, season-long harvests.

Snip outer stems regularly to encourage new leaves from the center. The sturdy stems add crunch and bright herbal notes to soups and sautés, while the large leaf size makes bunching and chopping fast and easy.

Reliable, aromatic, and productive, Italian Giant Parsley is a must-have herb for home cooks and gardeners who value vibrant flavor and steady yields.

🌱Planting Instructions

Approx seeds per order 200

For faster germination, soak seeds in warm water for 8–12 hours before sowing. Start indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost or direct sow outdoors once soil is workable. Choose fertile, well-draining soil in a sunny to lightly shaded spot.

Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in rows 12–18 inches apart. Keep the seedbed evenly moist—parsley germinates slowly (14–28 days). Thin seedlings to 8–12 inches for robust plants with ample airflow and steady regrowth after cutting.

Harvest outer stems first, leaving inner growth to continue. Regular cutting promotes fresh foliage. Mulch to retain moisture and keep leaves clean; water consistently for tender texture and strong flavor.
