Others of my customers, that actually know what they are doing, showed me theirs, and it looks the same: big stems, small leaves, flowers (if you can call them that) at the top. Questions: 1) what parts do you eat, just the small leaves? 2) what do you cut? The stem all the way to the ground? Many thanks, -T It is preparing to die, there is nothing you can do about it, there is no reason to cut anything other than to eat. Or dig out the whole plant and make way for something else. All the leaves are still edible. I tend to use the larger leaves rather than the feathery little ones but that is just preference. Plant more soon if you want parsley and for an assured supply in future plant at least yearly. D Hi David, Thank you! Is that what they call "Bolting"? Yup. Look up biennial, which is what it is. D |
