Can anyone please advise on growing leaf coriander. All our reference
books only mention coriander grown for its seed but the leaves are
currently used in many recipes. So far our efforts have had very poor
and slow germination with plants readily going to seed and in doing so
giving another type of leaf, more like carrot rather than the normal
parsley-like ones. We have managed to obtain some seed specifically for
leaf production but would appreciate any hints on temperature for
germination and other conditions for good growth. TIA Pam & Allan
