Dill (Anethum graveolens) | 5 Large Plug Plants

Dill is a wonderfully tall and aromatic herb plant with ferny foliage. Growing well in most soils, it prefers to be in full sun and because of its eventual height of up to 3 feet (90cms), is best at the back of the herb bed or vegetable patch. Produces thin blue-green leaves and rich yellow flowers. Often used as a condiment for fish and vegetables as well as for pickling. Prefers full sun and, being a perennial, it will die down in the winter and regrow the following year, often self-seeding.

Size guide - Pack of 5 Large Plug Plants 

Pot Ready, Large, Healthy plants individually rooted in large plugs of compost. Ideal for planting into baskets, containers or small areas in the garden. Best results achieved if grown on for a short while in 9cm/10cm pots prior to planting out if planting straight into garden borders. Tender varieties will need protecting from frost. Compost volume around 4-5cm deep x 3-4cm square. Foliage height 5cm-12cm (depending on variety). Full growing instructions are provided.

These herbs are so easy to grow and as they are perennial, will die down in the winter months and re-appear next spring.  Pot them on as for the annual herbs and then plant into pots or the garden.
