Chervil – also called Curled Chervil - is an aromatic herb that is typically used in seasonings and salads. Plant chervil seeds in ample sunlight and well-drained soil.

Chervil is a green herb, like cilantro, basil or parsley, not a woody herb like thyme or rosemary.

This means it is usually raised as an annual and planted each spring (and often in mid-summer for a fall crop). This means it likes sun and can be damaged by frost.
