After nearly a year, this culantro (not cilantro) is coming up strong. It was grown mostly under a grow-light environment.

So cool. I've never heard of it and had to Google it. Do you cook with it? #hivegarden 🌿

It's been a long time since I've seen a culantro plant. My grandma used to have one.

I managed to get some seeds (they're tiny) and planted a bunch, but this one is the only one that grew healthy. They're hard to grow in a colder climate. I'm excited to try it.

It tastes just like cilantro but has a milder flavor. The best part is you can cook with it, unlike cilantro, which has to be added fresh. Once it grows to a certain size, I'll sacrifice a few leaves and throw them in the soup or stew :)
