Delfino
A tier
Delfino is a fine, ferny-leaf coriander (cilantro) cultivar popular in Europe for delicate texture and good leaf production—aromatic citrus-herbal leaves for salsas and garnishes. Cut and come again; watch for bolting in heat. Fine leaves plate elegantly. Same soap-vs-nectar genetics as other C. sativum for some eaters.
