Cilantro/Coriander, Slow-Bolt (splits)
Cilantro is the most popular leafy aromatic herb with a tangy citrusy-parsley-like flavor, used in Latin and Asian cuisines.
Coriander is the dried seed, whole or powdered, with an earthy, floral flavor used as a spice in Indian cuisine. Grow it just for the seeds or the tiny pinkish flowers, which are quite sweet.
Cilantro prefers cool weather, and this slow-bolt variety will tolerate a bit more heat, putting out more leaves for a longer time before it starts bolting out tasty flowers and Coriander seeds.
Leaves, stems, flowers, seeds, and root of this fast-growing herb are all edible. It also likes shady spots, so a good one to grow indoors.
As a companion plant, it attracts pollinators and beneficial insects, and repels aphids, carrot rust fly, grasshoppers, mosquitoes, potato beetles, and spider mites.
As a medicinal herb, Coriander has been used internally to treat anxiety, arthritis, bad breath, colic, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, flatulence, indigestion, inflammation, insomnia, lack of appetite, nausea, nervousness, pain, stomach cramps, and urinary tract infections (UTIs), and externally to treat rheumatism, headache, joint pain, and tired eyes.
