Family: Carrot (Apiaceae) Overwintering annual hardy to Zones 7 to 9, often grown as an annual, 40 days to harvest. (Fine-curled Chervil) Native to Europe, growing to about 12 inches and with a mounding habit. Fast-growing, ferny, anise-flavored green that does great in a cool garden setting or in pots or planters. Chervil has a reputation of repelling slugs, but at the same time it attracts almost every kind of beneficial insect and native pollinator, feeding them with sugary nectar through the winter months. The plants are petite and the flavor is very fine. It is a gourmet parsley-like plant that is used in seasoning vegetables, meat dishes, omelettes, soups, and for making salad dressing. The herb is experiencing a renaissance of popularity, and is very saleable in salad mixes or as a plant in a pot. Direct seed in the spring or fall garden.
