| About Dill |  | | |
| | | Dill, like most herbs, loves to bask in the sun, but will tolerate afternoon shade. Dill grows up to 3 feet tall, so plant it in the back of your flower, vegetable or herb garden. Sow seeds close together. This will allow the plants, which blow over easily to support each other. Cover the seeds lightly, and allow a week or two for them to germinate. For a continuous crop, sow repeatedly from mid spring to early summer. Swallowtail caterpillars are fond of dill. | | Return to top |
