How to grow Curly leaf parsley 'Moss'

  • Partial Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Moss is thought of as hardy, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Planting Moss in loamy soil with a ph of between 5.6 and 6.0 is ideal for as it does best in weakly acidic soil.

Growing Moss from seed

Aim to sow 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 0.98 inches (2.5 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 10°C / 50°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Moss about 35 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Moss

As Moss is hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
