Confetti Cilantro/Coriander Seed

Product ID:4714.114714

Attractive, fern-like cilantro for baby-leaf production.

Lofty, feathery leaf structure for a pleasant texture when eating. Good cilantro flavor. Texture, flavor, and visual appeal are best when plants are young; so, we recommend Confetti for baby-leaf production rather than for full-size bunching. Makes a great garnish for Asian and Latin American cuisine. Chefs will love it! Looks great and makes for less chopping in the kitchen. A perfect addition to fish tacos.

  • Attracts Beneficial Insects: if allowed to flower, provides pollen and nectar for beneficial insects such as, bees, hoverflies, and tachinid flies.

  • Edible Flowers: Use the flowers raw because the flavor fades quickly when cooked. Sprinkle to taste on salads, bean dishes, chicken, and spicy Southwestern dishes. Flavor is of mild cilantro.

Specs:

  • Packet: 200 seeds
  • Avg. 3,100 seeds/oz
