Prefers cool conditions – semi-shade in summer.
Chervil (also known as Kerbel) belongs to the Herbs category and is suitable for outdoor planting from Early Spring onwards.
Use the Growing Temperature Sum (GTS) as a guide: Chervil can be safely transplanted once the local GTS has passed the threshold for Early Spring and no frost is expected. GrowPilot.guide calculates the current GTS for your location automatically.
🗓️ Tip: Always check the 10-day weather forecast before planting outdoors. The GTS is a helpful guide but does not replace a frost check for your specific area.
Chervil tolerates light frost down to about −3°C. Extended cold periods or hard frosts are harmful. Once night temperatures stay above 3°C, it is safe to plant outdoors.
Chervil grows best at daytime temperatures between 10°C and 22°C. Night temperatures should not fall below 3°C.
Chervil is relatively robust against mold and tolerates wetter conditions well. Still, always avoid waterlogging.
Rain sensitivity: Low – Relatively rain-tolerant – good drainage is sufficient.
