Variety History

Bouquet dill is an early-flowering variety bred for seed head production -- ideal for pickling. Grows 3 feet tall.

Regional Context

Dill does not transplant well -- always direct sow. Swallowtail butterflies use dill as a host plant; expect caterpillars and plant extra to share.

Growing Technique

Direct sow 1/4 inch deep, 1 per sq ft (it gets big). Low-maintenance. Stake if exposed to wind. Harvest leaves anytime; seed heads for pickling once flowers dry.
