Fennel - Florence

Approximately 50 Seeds

Not to be confused with the Common Green or Bronze Herb Fennel, this one is grown primarily for its fleshy bulb which has a wonderful aniseed flavour. The leaves can also be used. Great for small gardens as the plant grows to only to 1 metre tall. Annual. 

• Sow sparingly mid spring to late summer using successive sowing to prolong harvest
• Keep well-watered and earth up when bulbs begin to swell to 5 cms

• Cut and use about 3 weeks after earthing up
