How to Grow Italian Giant Parsley
Italian parsley herbs require temperate conditions. They don’t perform well in extremely hot areas and are prone to freezing back in cold climates. Choose a sunny site in well-draining soil with plenty of organic amendment. Use a fine mixture of potting soil, peat moss, and sand. Cover with 1/8 inch (3 mm.) fine dusting of soil, and keep the seeds misted and lightly moist. Thin seedlings to 10 to 12 inches (25-31 cm.) apart.
Care of Italian Giant Parsley

Allow the soil to dry out partially between watering.
Water deeply approximately once per week and allow excess moisture to drain out.
Fertilize plants in the ground in early spring with a balanced fertilizer. Potted plants may be fertilized monthly with a half dilution of liquid plant food.
Trim what you need, taking the stems back to the core of the plant.
If your plant is skinny and spindly, try moving it to a brighter area.
Cut off any blooms as they occur, as this will cause the plant to seed and leaf production to diminish.
