Santo Cilantro

Cilantro is a classic Mexican herb and an important addition to herb gardening for every chef. The fresh leaves are used fresh, but when left to go to seed, you get Coriander. A popular culinary herb in Asian and Mexican cuisine, cilantro is a very versatile herb to grow, but bolts quickly in the heat. Planting in partial shade or by succession planting is the best way to make sure you have lots of cilantro to last you all summer long. Santo is a slower-bolting variety, so you get more harvest time.
