'Parsley Crested' (AIS 95-359) is very self-branching, [contrary to Bess Shippy's<br />

earlier remarks (1950a) ], whereas 'Curly Locks' is not self-branching. In addition,<br />

compared to 'Curly Locks, 'Parsley Crested' is a more compact plant, has<br />

frillier leaves, and the petioles are shorter, less than 3/4 the length of the blade.<br />

The name 'Crispa' (Heieck 1980d, 1987d) has also been associated with<br />

'Parsley Crested'.<br />

'Parsley Crested' is correctly described and illustrated by Heieck (1980c,<br />

1987c), but the photo in Rose1980b, 1990, 1996b) is closer to 'Curly Locks'.<br />

Fearnley-Whittingstall (1992b) and Key (1999b) have 'Curly Locks' and 'Parsley<br />

Crested' reversed.<br />
