Parsley has been cultivated and used for centuries.  It is used as a flavoring in soups and salads, as a garnish, and some varieties, as a vegetable (see 'Hamburg Rooted').

Herbalists have used it as a breath freshener, digestive aid, and in tea to treat high blood pressure and rheumatism.  Because it is high in vitamins A and C, it has also been used as a quinine substitute to treat malaria.

Parsley becomes very bitter as the plant starts to flower.  For best germination, freeze seed for three to five days and then soak in warm water for about 8 hours before planting.  Cover seed lightly.  Darkness helps germination.
