Some Herbs may be too tall for our standard packaging and will be trimmed to fit. This will not be detrimental to the plant but will mean that these herbs will flower later in the year.
The Blister packs used to protect our beautiful herbs during transit are made from 100% recycled plastic and can be recycled kerbside.
Curled Parsley is a clump-forming plant, preferring rich well-drained soil in a sunny or partially shady site, performs well in a potted situation. The leaves are very rich in iron and Vitamin A, C and E, and although yellow-green flowers are produced in umbels in summer, it is best to employ a rotational planting system to ensure that you have fresh young leaves all season.
As a garnish, no herb is better known than Parsley (Petroselinum crispum), and it is grown in several varieties around the world. Native to the Mediterranean and Southern Europe, Parsley has spread globally, and is probably one of the most recognised herbs, particularly in the West. Parsley also has the ability to counter strong odours so is often used with garlic or onions.
Our potted Curled Parsley herb plants are generally availiable to buy online between March and September.

These plants arrived in very good condition, ready to plant out and looking healthy. I would recommend these and would certainly order again from Hooks Green.
We ordered 4 parsley plants. They arrived in very good condition in a clever (recycled) plastic cartridge which clamps together in the middle to hold each plant firmly in the pot without damaging the leaves above. All four were carefully packed in outer cardboard. As suggested I took them out immediately and watered them. Very soon they were expanding and have grown well since. Good value quality plants.
Ordered several different herbs. All good price, came quickly, healthy and have rooted well. Recommend.
Nice healthy plants; delivered in protective containers and easy to plant out from their pots. Doing well after planting.
Plants arrived carefully packaged and were moist and in good condition and of a good size to plant out immediately into the tub that i use to house them --much used for cooking--these are a very good example of this useful herb,
