Identifying and Overwintering Brazilian Coriander: A Mystery Herb

No Known Plant by That Name

There are two common corianders: small-seeded (cilantro/Chinese parsley) and large-seeded (spice coriander). Neither is called "Brazilian coriander." Cilantro bolts quickly and self-sows but doesn't overwinter well.

Need More Info

Please provide a botanical name or description (height, flower color, leaf shape) so I can identify it and advise on overwintering.
