Dill - Fernleaf
Pot Size: 4.5 Inch Pot
Dill is an easy herb to grow with a nice aroma and is versatile to use. Fresh dill is great in herb butter, soups, salads, and fish dishes. Once the plant goes to seed stop cutting for fresh use. Allow the seed heads to form and dry completely. Harvesting the seeds can be done easily by hand. Use seeds for pickling, on roasts, stews, vegetables, or grind up to use as a substitute for salt. 'Compatto' is a somewhat shorter, more compact version of dill. It is a great choice for growing in containers.
