Compact plants grow 75-90 cm (30-36″) tall, and are full of flavour. A great bunching variety that works well in containers or smaller herb gardens. Bouquet has large seed heads and large seeds. Dill combines the two flavours and smells of parsley and caraway into one herb, and looks great while doing it! The cooling, aromatic foliage and seeds are used in a wide range of dishes, especially those with eggs, potatoes, fish, and pickling cucumbers.
Plant 6 mm (¼”) deep.
Herbs do best in a hot, sunny spot. In these conditions they’ll make the highest level of the aromatic oils that give them their taste and aroma. They also prefer well-drained alkaline soil, pH 6-8.
Dill flowers attract beneficial insects that prey on aphids and cabbage moth.
Direct sow in the late spring soil, sowing every two to three weeks for a longer season of harvest.
Keep well watered. Deadhead the flowers to prolong the harvest life of the leaves, but do not deadhead if grown for the seeds.
