Pruning parsley?

I had always expected herbs to be somewhat low lying wheras this seems to be making a bid to be architectural! Parsley is an herb, not a landscape plant. :-) The stems can be used as flavoring in soups & stews. You can't "prune" a plant without branches. The flower stalks are indeed a good deal taller than 1st year leaves. That's just the way the plant grows. Mine is "in bud" now, and I'm looking forward to a fresh supply of seed. |
