Growing coriander requires very little equipment. Here’s what you’ll need :  

Coriander seeds

A suitable pot with drainage holes

Multipurpose compost

Coriander is most commonly grown in a pot - either in a little shade on the patio or on a windowsill that doesn’t receive direct, burning sunlight in summer and which doesn’t get too hot.

Sowing coriander

Sow directly in well-prepared moist soil outside at monthly intervals from March to August for a continuous supply of leaves.

You can also grow it in 15-30cm (6-12in) pots, sowing a few seeds in each and germinating indoors with gentle warmth. Sow every 6-8 weeks to have a constant supply of fresh leaves throughout the year.

Young plants are usually available from garden centres in summer. Plant these out or pot them up into slightly larger pots.
