Chervil seeds — delicate, aniseed-scented gourmet herb

Chervil is a refined French herb with lacy, fern-like leaves and a delicate parsley-aniseed flavour — a key part of the classic fines herbes and lovely with eggs, fish and salads. The species is gathered under Anthriscus cerefolium within our culinary herb range. New to herbs? Our herb growing guide covers the basics.

Chervil prefers the cooler seasons — the herb calendar shows when to sow.

A cool-season gourmet herb

Quick and delicate, chervil dislikes summer heat, so it shines in spring and autumn (and under cover in winter). A fast annual, it sits among our annual and aromatic herbs, and does well in part shade where other herbs sulk.

Growing chervil from seed

Sow direct, as chervil resents transplanting and bolts in heat. Keep it cool, moist and lightly shaded, and pick young leaves often. Sow little and often through spring and autumn for a steady supply.
