Cilantro/Coriander

I had no idea that cilantro and coriander were the same thing!

Due to planting the entire seed pods, the cilantro's coming up in small clumps... though the packet says to thin them to 12 inches, I am leaving many together as I've seen in photos from gardens where the patch is frequently harvested.



Here are the seedlings at 4 weeks and 2 inches high... finally looking like cilantro!

  1. Bwahaha! A lot of people don't know that they're one and the same, just different parts of the same plant. It's not just you. :)

    I found that out several years ago when watching Good Eats. Alton Brown is my science-food hero.
