{"product_id":"herb-chervil-vertissimo-non-gmo-heirloom-seeds","title":"Herb Chervil Vertissimo 1000 Non-GMO, Heirloom Seeds","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #006400;\"\u003eChervil Vertissimo\u003c\/strong\u003e brings finely textured, dark green foliage and a delicate sweet anise flavor to the cool-season kitchen garden. This Brussels Winter type offers gentle licorice notes that complement salads, soups, sauces, fish, and fresh herb blends without overwhelming lighter ingredients. Its lacy leaves make a graceful addition to containers, raised beds, and herb plantings, where tender sprigs can be gathered close to cooking time. Picture snipping a small handful for softly scrambled eggs, folding fresh leaves into a finished sauce, or scattering them over a salad just before serving. Chervil is best appreciated young and fresh, with its delicate flavor added near the end of cooking rather than subjected to prolonged heat. Grow it during the cooler seasons and protect it from intense heat to help maintain a useful supply of tender foliage. Whether you are exploring classic fresh-herb combinations or adding variety to everyday meals, Vertissimo offers a rewarding garden-to-table ingredient. These non-GMO, heirloom seeds are for planting, not for direct consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #006400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Rate: 97%. Test Date: 05\/26.
