🌿 A Rare, Old-World Parsley You Won’t Find in Stores
Most parsley grown today comes from modern commercial varieties—but Cilician parsley traces back to traditional seed-saving regions of the Mediterranean.
This uncommon heirloom is connected to the historic Cilicia region (modern-day southern Turkey), an area known for centuries of agriculture, trade routes, and preserved garden varieties.
Unlike modern commercial parsley bred for uniformity and large-scale production, this traditional strain has been maintained by small growers and seed savers, helping preserve older genetic lines that are rarely seen today.
Because of its long history in Mediterranean gardens, some growers consider Cilician parsley to represent very old parsley stock—possibly reflecting the kinds of parsley grown long before modern commercial breeding programs existed.
Today, it remains a rare and hard-to-find herb, especially outside of seed-saving circles.
🌿 What Makes Cilician Parsley Different
Unlike typical parsley, this variety stands out with:
• Soft, finely divided, fern-like foliage
• A rich, strong parsley flavor
• Good performance in partial shade or full sun
• A unique, old-world appearance rarely seen in modern varieties
This is a great choice for gardeners looking to grow something different, productive, and conversation-worthy.
