Coriandrum sativum
Coriander Eureka has a strong aroma and whilst the entire plant is edible, it is mostly used for its fresh leaves. This plant grows best in cooler weather and is therefore perfect for autumn planting. A tall growing plant, it will happily grow in warmer weather provided it is kept out of direct afternoon sun. Prefers full-sun and a fertile, humus-rich soil is best, however herbs are hardy and will grow in most soil types.
How to plant: Sow directly into your patch or purchase as seedlings and transplant.
