I have tried (mostly unsuccessfully) to grow cilantro and usually find it to be weak and prone to early bolting. I just put in another try with a pony pack of Santo. After I diligently teased all the seedlings apart and set them in the ground, I noted the tag suggests planting them in clumps. Hmm. Maybe that's what I've been doing wrong? Once one does get this plant to thrive, will it reseed reliably? I have a vivid memory of a non-gardener friend (in my general area) who had cilantro growing all around her house foundation with no care on her part. She used to mow it to try to keep it under control. I would sure love to achieve that. I noted that @p1mkw @catmint20907 and @joy have all posted photos or comments on this, and would love any advice you might have. Thanks!
I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned.
