Hello Mrs P, i hope your in the best of health.
I have got some of the best pots of coriander that i have ever grown, they are really good stocky plants just waiting to be planted out into a tub or a herb garden. They would soon get established an be ready for harvesting, and used in a delicious coriander and carrot soup.
The only trouble being i'm not going to Malvern so unlucky. HA. HA.

Kind regards the cheeky Old Herbaceous.

Old H

How could you be so cruel? I was getting all excited reading your post - until I got to the last line that is :shock:

When you're eating all that lovely coriander, do make sure you chop it nice and fine, so as not to choke on it you understand :twisted:

Sweet dreams

Mrs P
Kindest regards Piglet

Hello Mrs P
If you don't have any luck obtaining coriander from those going to Malvern, we'll be sowing plenty of it this weekend. Outdoors though, so if you would like me to sow some in a pot or two for you, just let me know and I will sow accordingly. I can't guarantee it will be to the standard of Old Herbaceous's plants, but they will be certainly be closer for collection.

Coriander is a bit like marmite isn't it? Loved or hated. I can't stand the stuff - raw, anyway. OH loves it in salads and to me it just smells and tastes of shield bugs - well, as I expect they would! Funnily enough, I am fine with it cooked. :?

Tis the food of the Devil Chez. We have several packets that I hide in the seed box so I dont have to sow it for the old bird.

I suppose now that its on the forum I had better attempt to grow some :twisted: :twisted:

Hi Mrs P. As Chantal says we are neighbours on the allotment in Rugby so there shouldnt be a problem with meeting up with you at Malvern. I`m driving and Chantal is navigating so we could be in for a fun day :)

That was below the belt, I was really sick at Ryton, drugged up the eyeballs and I STILL found my way home on my own! :D

I know that Chantal was ill at ryton but I can understand her need for magic pills sometimes - i followed her down the road in her car yesterday and it looks like the circus has come to town. Her other half has covered it in England flags in prep for the world cup. The poor thing needs our sympathy living with a football fanatic! I have offered her a room at my house if she needs a bolt hole.
