Discover the delightful fragrance and flavour of these Traditional Aromatic Dill Seeds. Belonging to the Anethum graveolens variety, this common dill is an annual herb that reaches up to 4 feet in height, offering both culinary and ornamental value. Perfect for planting in spring and early summer, these seeds sprout within 10-14 days and flourish best in full sunlight and well-drained, fertile soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.7.
The fern-like, delicate leaves of this dill exude a sweet aroma, enhancing your garden’s sensory appeal. As the summer progresses, the plant yields flavorful seeds with a slightly bitter, caraway-like taste. These seeds are a staple in pickling and are also perfect for adding a unique flavor to salads, soups, and various meat and fish dishes. Moreover, the beautiful yellow blooms are not only visually pleasing but also attract butterflies and bees, making this dill an excellent choice for pollinator gardens.
To achieve the best growth, sow the seeds directly in your garden after the last frost. Dill is known for its sensitivity to transplanting, so direct sowing is preferred. Ensure to space the seeds about 18 inches apart, allowing ample room for each plant to reach its full potential. Regular watering is essential, though the plant becomes quite drought-tolerant once established. For a bountiful harvest, pick leaves as needed and collect seeds when they turn brown in late summer.
