Flowering season.
Plant container plants
From Mid Spring TO Early Summer
Plant container plants in a sunny or partially shaded position in rich moist soil 6" - 8" apart
Propagation by Seed
From Late Winter TO Mid Spring
Parsley is a slow germinator, so get ahead by sowing seeds in pots indoors 10-12 weeks before the last frosts. To aid germination, soak the seeds in water overnight before sowing. For sowing outdoors, sow seeds in rich moist soil about 3 weeks before the last Spring frosts.
