I was reading a book about flavorful vegetables to grow, and these three (all in the carrot-parsley-celery family) caught my eye. The chervil root, especially, is supposed to have an incredible taste -- it is not the same plant as the leafy herb (Anthriscus). Root chervil is Chaerophyllum bulbosum.

Has anyone tried growing these?

Is there a seed source in the U.S. for root chervil?
