For those of with summers too warm for coriander... Another option is 'long-leaf coriander' (Eryngium foetidum), a completely different species. Not quite as yummy as normal coriander, it has a strong coriander taste, and it copes with heat. I grow it in semi-shade all summer long. You need two lots - one you allow to go to seed, and the eating one where you pick-out the flower stalks as they form, to avoid the leaves getting too prickly.
