Bouquet Dill Seed

Sometimes only dill will do! Bouquet is early-flowering, with large seed heads. Great for a beginner or child’s garden as it very easy to grow — actually does best in poor soil! Harvest mild leaves as needed, or cut entire plant when pungent seeds have formed at the top. Use in pickling, as a flavoring or garnish for fish dishes, sauces, dips, potato salad and anything containing fresh cucumbers. Annual, but often reseeds itself.
