Fothergill's Fennel di Firenze Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Foeniculum vulgare, a highly prized Mediterranean vegetable that thrives in British garden soils.
• Bulb Quality: Produces large, crisp, white bulbs that develop quickly, ensuring a satisfyingly crunch and a tender texture when harvested.
• Flavour Profile: Offers a sweet, mild 'aniseed' flavour that adds a refreshing, sophisticated dimension to summer salads, side dishes, and roasts.
• Feathery Foliage: The attractive, fine green top growth can be continuously harvested to use as an aromatic garnish or for adding subtle flavouring to fish and vegetable dishes.
• Growth Habit: A fast-to-mature variety, making it an excellent choice for gardeners looking for efficient, high-yielding plots.

Care & Growing Instructions:

• Sowing Position: Plant in a warm, sunny position in fertile, well-drained soil, ensuring consistent moisture to prevent the bulbs from bolting.
• Harvesting: Lift the white bulbs once they are well-formed and firm to the touch, slicing the feathery tops back to use fresh from the plot.
