If you cannot wait, then you could try the local hardware stores in their gardening sections. Look where the seed packages are located and see if you can find the cilantro seeds (coriander). I purchased some last year for growing. Didn't work out I bought various seeds from different hardware stores (Ace, True Value, Handyman) in Cebu so I am not sure which is the particular store or branch where I found the cilantro seeds (coriander) available. I am not sure if this is very cost effective but if you don't need that many seeds and/or you are desperate now, then this might be a place that you could find it. I'll also look around for coriander seeds when I am out and post here if I find any.

Just a side-note, those cilantro seeds that I purchased never even sprouted, but I did have had good luck growing mint, basil, and chili peppers from seeds. The parsley and dill I planted did just okay, nothing great.

coriander and cilantro are the same. we all know it as yansuy or wansuy or kinchay. they're from the parsely family. they're available in Carbon or in big supermarkets. i'd prefer fresh leaves not seeds but anyway, to each his own
