Fresh Parsley in your Kitchen Herb Garden

When it's too cold for gardening outside, it may be time to start your indoor garden. One of the most useful of these is the herb garden -- hopefully grown right in your kitchen.

You can start with parsley, easily grown from seed (no matter what naysayers might otherwise state!). Just remember to get a pot that's deep enough to hold the long root and use a new bag of potting soil. Lots of sun is necessary for parsley to do well: if you don't get a minimum of 5 hours direct sun, then supplement with fluorescent lighting.

Curly parsley (petroselinum crispum) contains Vitamins A and C as well as other valuable nutrients, so it's a healthy and breath-freshening green to include in salads and use liberally as garnish.
