Seed Needs Culantro Seeds for Planting Mexican Coriander - Non-GMO Heirloom Untreated Culinary/Medicinal Herbs to Grow an Indoor/Outdoor Herb Garden (1 Pack)

About this item Appearance: Culantro (Eryngium foetidum), also known as sawtooth coriander or long coriander, features long, narrow, lance-shaped leaves with serrated edges, resembling a larger version of cilantro but with a different growth pattern. Aroma and Flavor: It has a strong, pungent aroma and flavor similar to cilantro but more robust and lingering, often described as a blend between cilantro and parsley, with hints of citrus. Culinary Uses: Culantro is widely used in Caribbean, Latin American, and Southeast Asian cuisines for flavoring soups, stews, salsas, and curries. It's particularly valued in dishes where a strong cilantro flavor is desired but regular cilantro might wilt. Growing Habits: This herb is a perennial in tropical climates but often grown as an annual in temperate regions. It prefers partial shade to full sun and well-drained soil, and it's less susceptible to bolting than cilantro, providing a longer harvest period. Quality: All Culantro seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture. Quantity: Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored. Packets: Each seed packet displays an artful illustration of the variety to be grown, as well as detailed seed sowing information on the reverse side. They measure 3.5 wide by 5 tall.
