will coriander self seed?

Hello, I am a not very experienced gardener with a new garden. I am in the southern hemesphere, so just into spring. I have some coriander growing which is just flowering, if I leave it will it self seed as I would really like lots more growing?

Mine did - it went a bit straggly first, then it self-seeded - I have bushels of it now - and the seeds themselves, if you pick them while they are green, are phenomenally highly flavoured, much better than the leaves. I recommend, if you can, freezing some of the seeds in ice trays to use later, they are so intense and so good.
