Franz Eugen Köhler 1887
Several cultivated varieties exist, the principle being the common plain-leaved, the curled-leaved, broad-leaved and celery-leaved. Of the variety crispum, or curled-leaved there are thirty-seven variations, the most valuable are those of compact habit with close, perfectly curled leaves.
|
|
 The variety crispum was grown in very early days, even mentioned by Pliny. The dried leaves are also used for that purpose. Parsley tea proved useful in the trenches (WWI), where our men got kidney complications, when suffering from dysentery. |
|
 It is under the dominion of Mercury; is very comfortable to the stomach; helps to provoke urine and women's courses, to break wind both in the stomach and bowels, and doth a little open the body, but the root much more. Nicholas Culpeper |
 The herb was never brought to the table of old, being held sacred to oblivion and to the dead. It was reputed to have sprung from the blood of the
Greek hero Archemorus, the forerunner of death. There is an old superstition against transplanting parsley plants. The herb is said to be dedicated to Persephone and to funeral rites by the Greeks. | | |
 Parsley leaves can be crushed and applied repeatedly to a bruise. This remedy may help speed the disappearance of black-and-blue marks. |
