Description
This fresh herb plant is grown in our nursery for 8-10 weeks. Chervil is a culinary herb from the carrot family. It produces soft parsley-like leaves with a mild peppery flavour and hints of anise.
Used in egg dishes and fish/chicken dishes it is best used fresh. It loses most of its flavour when dried or overcooked. This is why in cooking, it is usually added just before serving.
As a plant it likes partial shade and cool weather, so it is very comfortable growing in Ireland.
This plant comes in a P9 pot and is ready to plant out. P9 pots are 9cm in diameter and are commonly used by professional horticulturists.
It can also be purchased as part of our 'choose your own' herb products at a reduced price (see recommended products below).
