Parsley - Petroselinum crispum (Parsley) 
Curly Parsley is more decorative for garden and 
table than the Flat-leaved variety but the latter has 
more flavor and vitamins. One tablespoon chopped Parsley 
is equal to the juice of one orange in Vitamin C; high 
in Vitamin A.Sow seeds of biennial Parsley every spring. 
Second year plants bolt to seed at once. Takes 3 to 4 
weeks to germinate. Soaking seed in warm water or 
planting in a flat under glass and setting out in the 
garden later hastens it somewhat. Will tolerate shade, 
likes good garden loam. 
American Pennyroyal - Hedeoma pulegioides (Mint) 
Intensely aromatic annual of familiar scent which 
is disliked by ants and mosquitoes. Plants become 
bushier and more full-flowered when cultivated. Leaves 
are used sparingly for seasoning lamb and pork, full 
sun or part shade. 1 ft. 
Summer Savery - Satureja hortenstis (Mint) 
Narrow leaves, branching stems and tiny pink flowers 
on 18-inch plants which turn a handsome purple in late 
summer. Light but spicy flavor called ‘bohenkraut’ for 
its affinity for beans. Sow where plants are to remain. 
Thin carefully leaving plants close enough to support 
each other. Hill-up slightly when weedling. Cut tips 
for drying several times. Full sun.lean soil. 
Perennial Flavoring Plants 
Angelica - Angelica Archangelica (Parsley)

remains perennial. Stems and leaves have a cooling, 
aromatic quality which makes them valued for flavoring. 
Candied stems and syrup used for desserts, frostings 
and confectionery. Sow seed in.moist humus in shade
