My wife has bought some parsley , one curly leaf and one flat leaf,
growing in a pot and enclosed (held up!) with plastic wrapping. Once
the wrapping is removed both herbs were very floppy and do look rather
pale. The curly leaf parsley has seemed to have died now. Is there
anything that we can do to save the other. These plants look quite
good in the supermarket but after only a couple of days at home they
fade fast, particularly if the wrapper is taken off and they have no
support.
Thanks

The secret?

We found that the plants, yes there are more than one to the pot, were too
crowded in the little pots. As soon as you get them home, open them up,
tease out the roots and pot the separate plants on. Been there, done that
and got good plants out of them. Safeway's now Morrison's do them and are
OK.

Try it again.
