Cilantro is a short-lived cool weather annual.....it is a total ripoff to buy a plant due to the short life span and sensitivity to bolting in a heat wave. But packets of cilantro seeds can be over $2 for a very paltry number of seeds. So go to an Asian market where for less than $1 you can get a cellophane bag of Coriander seeds (the seeds of the cilantro plant!) that has a few THOUSAND seeds in it. I've done this for years, both in Denver and now in Tampa.....germination rate is usually excellent. Cheap is good! John
