I can't remember a difference like I can fresh. Can You? lol Ever made pesto using fresh basil etc.? ;-d oh my, the basic start for my world famous sketti sauce Shirley, you're kidding. It's best if you can make it with just the flowers. I was wondering if I could use the flowers for anything. (was remiss and they got away from me, turns out my lucky day? Just as good is pesto made the same way but with cilantro. Hmmmmmmm, hmm, hmm. I planted cilantro, doesn't mean I can claim success of growing it but "next year" the gardener says You may still be in luck if you haven't already dug up the bed or dumped the pot. Parsley and cilantro usually go to seed in late spring. Took me a couple of years to figure tat out. I'd buy a starter plant of cilantro, take it home. Inside of three weeks it would bolt and three weeks later, I'd have an empty pot. It would have been easier to just give the nursery the money and avoid the hassle;o) Here in California, they will produce all winter long. Reminds me that I should get some seeds into the ground. If you grow them in pots, tuck the seed heads back in the pot and they will reseed themselves. That's what I do with my chervil. I used to grow it free range but in a pot it goes away for a couple of months and then comes back, like it is doing now. And TOTALLY off topic, this has been a very pleasant gardening year for me due to iron phosphate and the havoc that it wreaks on gastropods. Every couple of weeks I toss a hand full into a bed and I don't need to worry about it for a couple of more weeks. The lettuce patch looks particularly nice. I only grow parsley when I plant dill weed. :-) Gives me something to move the Swallowtail larvae to. g They can also live on Fennel leaves. -- Peace!
