Herb
Bouquet
A tier
Bouquet dill is bred for abundant leafy fronds and compact seed heads—ideal when you want dill weed for sauces and still collect umbels for pickles. Foliage is feathery, blue-green, and strongly anise-citrus. Chop into gravlax cure, yogurt sauces, and potato salads. Harvest leaf before full seed set for mildest weed; use mature umbels in cucumber jars. Plants bolt in heat—succession sow.
