The cooling, aromatic foliage and seeds are used in a wide range of dishes, especially those with eggs, potatoes, fish, and pickling cucumbers. For a regular supply of dill leaves, make successive sowings ever 2 to 3 weeks in well-drained, neutral to slightly acid soil in full sun. Do not plant near carrots, as they react adversely. However, cabbage seems to like dill nearby. Dill flowers also attract beneficial insects that prey on aphids. Plants reach 36 inches tall and 12 inches wide. Pkt is 100 seeds. |
