How tall do these coriander plants grow?

These large seeded Coriandrum sativum plants typically reach around 70 cm in height, forming upright, robust clumps in beds or herb borders.

When is the best time to sow these coriander seeds outdoors?

Sow the seeds outdoors from April to August in finely raked, well-drained soil. This window allows plants to develop fresh foliage and mature seed heads from mid-summer onwards.

Can I harvest both leaves and seeds from this coriander variety?

Yes. This large seeded coriander is ideal for both leaf and seed harvest. Pick the finely cut green leaves for cooking earlier in the season, then allow some plants to mature fully so you can collect the round, aromatic seed heads later on.

What growing conditions does coriander need to thrive?

Coriander prefers a sunny, sheltered position with well-drained, humus-rich soil. Keep the soil evenly moist, remove weeds, and lightly loosen the surface to support good root development and steady growth.

How should I sow and space the seeds in the garden?

Draw shallow rows 1–1.5 cm deep, spacing the rows 25–30 cm apart. Scatter the large seeds thinly, cover lightly with soil, and water gently. Once seedlings appear, thin them so each plant has enough room to develop well.

How can I get a continuous supply of coriander leaves and seeds?

Sow several small groups of seeds between April and August and stagger your sowings. Harvest leaves from some plants while allowing others to grow on and form abundant seed heads for later use.
