Features

notes
Dill has fine, feathery leaves with edible yellow flowers, wonderful in the garden as a foil to other plants. Dry leaves can be added to fish, vegetables and potato salads, adding a delicate aniseed flavour.  
Insights

Grown in peat free compost in a biodegradable pot made from waste coir and natural latex. Remove plant from pot or cut/tear away some of the coir if the plant is well rooted and hard to remove.
