Common chervil (Anthriscus cerefolium) in a P9 pot

Common chervil is a fresh and delicate culinary herb with delicate, light green leaves and a mild anise-like flavor. Delicious in soups, salads, egg dishes, or as a refreshing finish to hot dishes. A classic in the herb garden and indispensable in spring cooking.

Chervil grows best in a semi-shaded to sunny spot in humus-rich, slightly moist, and well-drained soil. Harvest the young leaves regularly to keep the plant compact and encourage growth. In warm weather, the plant may bolt and flower more quickly.

Grows to about 30–50 cm tall and is ideal for the vegetable garden, herb garden or pot.

Organic/non-organic
This planting material comes from a small-scale grower without an official organic certificate. But don't worry, we're certain it's pesticide-free.

Stronger plants, honest photos
Our plants are grown outdoors and are completely winter-hardy. They aren't young greenhouse plants, but stronger, perennials that have been growing for a while and therefore have a well-developed root system. By growing in wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, they are better hardened, more robust, and adapt more quickly after planting than herbs grown in a warm greenhouse this year. Conservatory plants often look greener and fuller, but are younger and less resilient.

Because our plants follow the natural rhythm of the seasons, they can look bare or less attractive in winter. Many perennials die back (partially) above ground and store their energy underground. Sometimes the pot may seem empty, but don't worry: the strong roots are alive and will ensure the plant sprouts vigorously again in spring.

The photos show what the plants look like in winter, so you get a fair idea of ​​what you'll receive if you order in the spring.
