Parsley is a herbaceous plant that does everything possible during winter so that the cold does not harm it, slowing down its growth. For this reason, it is very important that during the days when the temperature is low we do not pay too much attention to it; What’s more, all we have to do is water it once a week on average so that its roots can continue to keep the plant hydrated, but nothing more.
