When to Seed Sorrel

This perennial herb should be direct seeded into the garden in early spring or transplanted once all danger of frost has passed. 

Where to Plant Sorrel

This plant will appreciate a spot with full sun. Loose, well-draining soil is ideal but this plant will tolerate a wide range of growing conditions. It will also come back year after year, so keep this in mind when choosing a planting location! 

Growing Sorrel

Sow seeds ¼ inch deep and four to six inches apart. Once mature, thin to 12 to 16 inches apart. When established, this herb is low maintenance. 

Harvesting Sorrel

Sorrel leaves can be harvested and used like any other salad green. Leaving the growing tip intact will result in a cut-and-come-again harvest.
