Coriander ‘Santo’ (Coriandrum sativum)

As I grow coriander for its leaves rather than for its seeds I grow this slow bolting variety. It is ready to pick in less than a month and a half and will under reasonable conditions take three or four months before it runs up to seed. It’s best to sow seed at six weekly intervals.
