i have no problems with any other herbs but have been unable to get
parsley to grow for several years now. i've tried growing it from seed
and did really well at the beginning but as with bought plants they die
after producing a handful of leaves. i grow them in pots in multipurpose
compost and keep them moist at all times.

Don't keep'em moist ALL the time (they'll likely rot).
Also note, parsley is an umbellifer, with a tap root: you'll need rather
deep pots for it.
It's very hardy - I'd not grow it in pots at all.

Luck!
