Curly parsley (Petroselinum crispum)
Curly parsley (Forest Green variety) is one of the herbs most used as an ornamental garnish. The leaves of this variety are varied, from very curly to a little more open. The plant is vigorous and resists well to our Quebec winters. You can eat it all summer long, and freeze it in small ice cubes for your winter recipes.
