Coriander

Coriander prefers a sunny to semi-shady, warm location that is as sheltered from the wind as possible. It requires regular watering, with the soil needing to be kept consistently moist but well-drained.

Ideally, the soil should be loose, humus-rich, and nutrient-rich, with a slightly acidic to neutral pH between approximately 6.0 and 7.0. Waterlogging should be avoided, as the roots are sensitive.

Both the aromatic leaves and the seeds are used as a spice. Coriander usually reaches a height of about 30 to 60 cm and grows as an annual, upright herbaceous plant.
