chervil

Just a quick post, wanted to show you a photo of my chervil that I grew from seed,.
Chervil is not a commonly used herb over here, but very popular in France, its got a mild aniseed flavour, so you use it like you would tarragon, with eggs, cheese and chicken.
I should have taken this photo at the beginning of July when it was looking its best, but totally forgot!
The reason I really want to share was its leaves, can you see its beautiful colours, ranging through from an acid green to a dusty pinky lilac, stunning.
Will definitely grow it again next year, but will plant it in the beds as it has a large root system and the one above is now looking rather pot bound......
