Mitsuba:
The Mitsuba San ye qin San ip Japanese Wild Parsley, 'Cryptotaenia japonica', has a really unique flavor tasting like angelica, celery and parsley. Break your gardening rut and try Mitsuba, a delightfully flavored Japanese herb. The leaves and stems are used to flavor foods and are added to salads. The plant is about 1 foot tall with light or dark heart-shaped 3 inch wide leaves. Plant the Mitsuba after the last average frost date or in early fall for a winter crop. They will grow in full sun but they prefer light shade.
