Dill Bouquet Anethum Graveolens – Growing Instructions

• Sow directly outdoors in spring through early summer after danger of frost has passed.

• Plant in full sun, protected from strong winds and in well-drained soil.
• Thin to 15cm apart when plants are 5cm high. Transplant thinned plants.
• Save both seeds and leaves. Pick leaves continually. Harvest as seed starts to ripen.
• Pick on a dry summer day after seeds have formed. Hang in cool, well-ventilated room.
• Dry large heads and gently rub the seeds, then seal in jars for later use. Store in airtight containers.
• Leaves can be frozen for later use.
