Chervil Heirloom
Anthriscus cerefolium
Cool season, hardy annual. (Will stay green through much of the winter in USDA zone 6 and warmer.) Often called French parsley or gourmet’s parsley, chervil is an essential herb of French cooking along with chives, tarragon and parsley. Many cooks also like to add chervil to a bouquet garni. Though the light green, finely divided leaves resemble parsley, they have a distinct yet delicate licorice or anise flavor. The fresh leaves are perfect mixed with salads, sprinkled on fish or meat, added to egg dishes and even cold drinks such as tomato juice.
Full Sun or Light Shade
Height: 18" - 24" tall
Days to Emerge: 10 - 14 days
Seed Depth: Press into surface
Seed Spacing: A group of 5 seeds every 12"
Row Spacing: Evenly space groups
Thinning: When 2" tall, thin groups to 1 every 12"
When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 4 to 6 weeks before average last frost or as soon as soil can be worked, and again in summer 6 to 8 weeks before average first frost. For a continuous supply, sow seed every 2 to 3 weeks up to 6 weeks before average first frost.
When to start inside: Not recommended. Does not transplant well.
