'Put them not only at the top of the I basket but also work some in between the wires. Kant* the basket up near a < window and keejlthe soil suitably moist. v < The parsley ill soon start "to grow vigorously and toe basket will become a mass of delicate greenery. The more the ; parsley is picked the greater will be the .amount produced, and it is a' mistake to •How it to grow out too long.
