Culantro (Eryngium Foetidum) is a flavorful herb used in caribbean cooking. Puerto Rico uses it extensively in all kinds of stews, soups, beans, asopao, etc. It is a more flavorful substitute for Cilantro for all your culinary creations. It is definitely NOT EASY to come by the seeds for this fragrant herb until now. Another name for this herb in Puerto Rico is RECAO. In Asia it is also known as Long Coriander. Culantro is also known as: ngo-gai, spirit weed, long coriander, false coriander, black benny, recao de monte, Mexican coriander, and well over 65 more names in different parts of the world.

Tips on growing Culantro
I receive many e-mails requesting information on How to Grow Culantro. I have been handling these e-mails on a one on one basis and will continue to do so if needed. Here are the directions for easily growing your Culantro. First bear in mind that Culantro likes the shade and will not survive Full Sun. Also it loves moisture NOT wetness! Culantro seeds have a very short germination window, so seeds should be used within three months of purchase. With these things in mind here are the tips on how to grow Culantro.

Feedback from Customers attempting to get their Culantro going !

Hi Jose,
Guess what?!?! Our first Culantro sprouts poked their heads
out of the dirt
this morning! Can you believe it? They are too small
for pictures but as
soon as they become photogenic I'll send their
"portraits" along. We took
your advice and moved them up to the middle rack of our
incubation station.
It has a steady ambient temperature of 75 degrees day and
night. To remind
you, we planted these seeds on February 6th. We sprinkled the untreated
Culantro seeds on top of the Miracle Gro planting mix and a mere
18 days
later get to see our first sprouts!
The Aji Dulce plants are doing well too. All but two
stragglers have sprouted.
Most of them are
in natural light now with just a few in the "nursery"
(our station).
