Mayo Cilantro

• HB001

Coriandrum sativum. Collected from a Mayo family in Navajoa, Mexico, along the Mayo River, 1995. It was harvested late March to early April, "used like onions in everything", and reseeded itself plentifully for the following winter. 

Our Spring 2023 planting grew vigorously, hardy through cold temperatures including a March snow and late April frost, and the volunteers that have come up November 2023 look even better.  Plants have a mild, light floral flavor and are very tender.

Save the coriander seed to grind for recipes or to plant again.  From our Seed Bank Collection.
